Former England scrum-half Matt Dawson hits out at the RFU for their handling of the Mike Tindall affair in his column for the Daily Mail.
"The £25,000 fine for Mike Tindall is draconian and another example of the crazy decision-making going on at the Rugby Football Union.
"Having spent 10 days in New Zealand following the Rugby World Cup, I know full well that our international rivals are laughing at what is going on in English rugby.
"Senior figures around the world cannot believe how England have spontaneously combusted over the past few months.
"And the fine for Mike continues that trend of the past few months. Yes, something had to be done following the trip to New Zealand, but whatever his exploits were on his night out in a tourist town like Queenstown, does it qualify for a £25,000 fine?"
