Yesterday was a sad day for rugby, as fans around the world witnessed a sad sight when Nic White got assaulted on the field by Faf de Klerk's finger. It was a scary sight to see Nic hit the ground where I had to wait for medics to readjust his moustache. The whole stadium was just in disbelief and was silent. Then a miracle happened when Nic White regained consciousness and was miraculously able to get up with his own strength and continue playing. This just speaks volumes about his toughness as a player and Australia is lucky to have a scrumhalf like him.

His presence on the field just demands respect and admiration from his peers. This incident almost overshadowed the Australian win in The Rugby Championship vs South Africa, but it was clear that Australia played for Nic and was able to grind the win.

It is reported that Nic White only lost his dignity after the massive hit by Faf, but luckily he was able to recovery physically and will be able to play next week.
