Wasn't it reported that a Sefrikan told Pocock that he was going to snap his (Pocock's) neck in a Tri Nations game a while back?
In the days when a "fetcher" could dominate the breakdown, the fetcher/jackel was continually attacked around the head to get them off the ball. Now that the tackler has to give a clear release, and the tackled player seems to have an extra 1/2 second or so before they have to exercise their options, this rather dubious act has become less prevalent in the ruck/breakdown contest.
