If you mean by the word harsh then by all accounts Mills tackle was great, but he flicked his leg out afterwards to bring him down. Not seen it myself apart from at the game - just going off what I have read
My son watched on a stream. He said that the first tackle was a good tackle but the second hack was a pen.
Having seen the FLS it was a defnite penalty and red card. Mills' first tackle was a good challenge, but he stupidly kicked his leg out at Mclean.
Was a great challenge the first attempt, but definitely took him down with the second challenge, really don't hunk mills will have any complaints.
