Benjamin Casty, the brother of French rugby star Remi, was officiating a French junior cup match between Toulouse and Saint-Esteve last weekend when he sent off an overly fired up Saint-Esteve player. Our man was not ready to leave the field, but he was prepared to pop Casty with a vicious right cross before trying to fight everyone else who came in range.


Casty was knocked unconscious, per the , and the player might get banned for life. French rugby federation president Marc Palanques called for the disciplinary committee to be “uncompromising,” so I don’t think this dude has a long rugby career ahead of him.
