Mike McCarthy got caught by the studs of Ian Evans, and was worse for wear as a result

Ian Evans saw red for his stamp on Mike McCarthy in the game against Ospreys tonight, but that wasn’t the only red that was seen on the field.

McCarthy was taken off with a serious blood injury and was quite clearly seriously wounded as a result of Evans’ actions.
