Watch: Tongan Thor gets Slipper in the face
By Sam Smith
Taniela Tupou copped a brutal flying headbutt from team mate James Slipper during the Reds match against the Brumbies on the weekend and although both players appeared groggy as a result, Tupou somehow avoided being sent for a head injury assessment. Slipper himself was only sent for an HIA some ten minutes later. Replays show a physically wobbly Tupou being steadied by another team mate while feigning a shoulder injury before continuing with the game.
