Josaia Raisuqe says he deeply regrets the incident, which is either hilarious or outrageous, depending on who you talk to.
Raisuqe hoisted referee Laurent Millotte into the air in a moment that had become a viral hit in rugby circles. Milotte gave him a red card after Beziers players made a huge fuss, hoping to have a the crucial penalty reversed.
Now Raisuqe has told Midi Olympique that he lifted the referee in joy and meant no ill will towards him and how he has endured a hellish week of no sleep as his phone won’t stop ringing.
