Rugby League player suspended after viciously punching opponent square in the face

Mitch Garbutt was ejected from a World Club Challenge match this weekend after the Leeds player punched opponent James Tatou of North Queensland square in the face.

The incident happened after Tatou didn’t like a tackle by one of Garbutt’s teammates and smacked at him. Garbutt stepped in and ended the fight quickly with a right hook.

Garbutt has been suspended for two games for the punch.
