I dont agree with him kicking out (while being treated on the ground), but I think some are getting as carried away as he was

I think the one match ban is fair

Durante shouldn't of been there, and berating the ref is a habit that Durante has in particular that I don't like, however he's going to keep doing it while he's allowed to and while it gets results. However it's not Berisha's job to kick him away, it's the refs job to get rid of him.

The other thing is this, if you are injured there is no way you roll around on the ground, you either stay still holding the wound, or you get up and walk it off. You don't roll around rubbing it vigorously. If he behaved like someone who was injured then I would have sympathy for him, but no one behaves like that if they are legitimately in pain.

That is not how a grown man deals with someone hitting his shin, it's actually comical.

We need to stop this sort of carry on if we're going to get any traction into mainstream NZ.

If he behaved like someone who is injured I would think he might be injured, but because he hams it up and is obviously trying to get a decision you know it's not the case.
