Fijian star Josaia Raisuqe’s banned for ‘awkward’ ‘ref lift’ celebration – Wide World of Sports
‘I spoke to him after the match. He’s a kid in his head’
Fijian winger Josaia Raisuqe has copped a five week ban for lifting a referee to celebrate the final whistle in a French second division game.

The LNR disciplinary committee punished the player for “action against a game official” and for “disrespecting the authority of an official”.
