Clubb seems untouchable .

However a 0 match pen notice. Whats the point you might as well just say no further action taken.

Sorted out very well by the referee on the night, despite Coote holding his jaw and receiving a head check by the physio when he had been hit on the shoulder.
Nice try Lachlan.
