7NEWS Australia published this video item, entitled “Australian Kangaroos player Angus Crichton sin binned during 2022 Rugby League World Cup final” – below is their description.
Kangaroo Angus Crichton sought out Samoan Chanel Harris-Tavita after the Rugby League World Cup final to apologise for a hit that saw him sin-binned by referee Ashley Klein.
Crichton says he’s hopeful that any suspension doesn’t extend into the early part of the NRL season.
“It was a reaction, I didn’t know he was coming,” Crichton told reporters at Old Trafford.
“There was no malice in it at all. I apologised to him after the game and he knows that I didn’t try to injure him…I’m a good person who plays the game the way it is meant to be played.”
Australia claimed their third-straight world cup title today, holding off a spirited Samoan side to win 30-10 in Manchester.
