The ump clearly warns Hawkins not to touch him and Hawkins ignored that warning = suspended.
At no time did the umps feel threaten or impacted by the curnows.
Ed appears to push the ump. Was it forceful? Only the ump can say.
The umps should be protected from intentional contact.
A poster previously mentioned a rewording of the 'rule' to allow the umpire to report the player if they deem it appropriate.
This would then be referred directly to tribunal and remove the mrp step.
