Tom Curry sent a message to Steve Borthwick after scoring on his return for Sale Sharks against Northampton Saints.
The England flanker, back after six weeks out, burst through to extend Sharks lead late on.
The Sharks went onto lose late on as Saints came from behind after Manu Tuilag was sent off in the opening 40.
Reacting to the incident, one fan wrote: “Can’t argue with that!.”
Another said: “Red all day”
A third commented: “Dirty ***ard”
England predicted line-up vs Wales with Curry and Lawes returning
England will play against Wales in Cardiff in a week, and Steve Borthwick is likely to have Tom Curry and Courtney Lawes back in his team.

Both players are expected to participate in the Premiership this weekend, which is a significant boost for Borthwick.
Lawes has been dealing with injuries throughout the season, with his latest calf strain occurring during Northampton’s hosting of La Rochelle last month.
“I’m doing well,” Lawes told Times Radio.
“It’s been one of those seasons where I’ve not been able to stay on the field. When I first did my calf, everyone was thinking it could be a pretty long injury, six to eight weeks, maybe a bit more.
“Luckily, I tore it on the lower end, so it’s [only] a grade two. I should be back, hopefully, for Wales.”
Scrum coach Richard Cockerill has also backed Lawes to return to the fold: “Depending on how he trains, there’s probably no concern over picking him,
“He’s an experienced player and he’s had long injuries previously and come back in and played well for both club and country, so that doesn’t really concern us when it comes to a guy of his stature.”
