One idiot that went under the radarFormer Wigan winger Martin Offiah: "Second punch Flower threw was over the top but in Rugby League if you forearm somebody in the face you can't complain if he clocks you one. If I had done what Lance did I'd expect a slap. Lance Hohaia will never attack Ben Flower again. Not condoning second punch on a prone player."
Former England striker Michael Owen: "In China but just seen those punches. First one was shocking but the second one was a disgrace. Can you imagine the outcry if a footballer did that? To hit someone again when they are already out cold is hard to understand."
