Rugby League is an incredibly tough sport, everyone knows that.

With massive hits traded throughout 80 minutes, things can sometimes boil over.

But, every so often sometimes things go too far, as this clip of Allan MacMahon throwing Mick Ryan into the ground back in 1979 shows.

Cassidys on Morley, I thought he'd killed him, a bit of forward retribution in that tackle
