TOMMY BOWE believes Garry Ringrose is the kind of guy “you’d love your daughter to come home with”.

But he insisted the Ireland centre’s red card challenge against Wales would warrant him being chucked out of the house never to return.

Ringrose was sent to the sin-bin for a head-to-head tackle on Ben Thomas in the 35th minute of the Six Nations clash on Saturday.

After a review, it was upgraded to a 20-minute red card, with the Leinster man being the first to fall foul of the new rule this season.

However, former Ireland and Ulster winger Tommy Bowe insisted that Ringrose should be in for a bigger ban for the tackle.

Speaking on the BBC, he said: “I don’t think there’s any doubt about it, it is a red card.

“It’s a high shot by Garry Ringrose.

“Normally one of the best defenders in world rugby, but he does have a habit of coming out of the line.

“That’s Robbie Henshaw‘s man, Garry comes from the outside and tries to blindside him.

“He has to get lower.

“Ben Thomas puts a bit of footwork on him, but he has to get low.

“That’s what we want to try stamp out of the game, particularly on such a big spectacle like this.

“Garry Ringrose, a wonderful defender and a great guy.

“The sort of guy you’d love your daughter to come home with.

“Then he’s just gone and head-butted a Welsh player! He’s gone – out the door. You’re not coming in to look for my daughter!”

Ringrose never returned to the field at the Principality Stadium, as he was replaced by Bundee Aki.

The Connacht centre saw out the game as Simon Easterby‘s men came from behind with 17 straight points to run out 27-18 winners for their 14th Triple Crown.

It inches them ever closer to a third Six Nations title on the bounce, while they remain on for a second Grand Slam in three years.

However, while he was relieved to see Ireland back up to 15 men for the remainder of the game, Bowe insisted Ringrose should be in for a big punishment.

He added: “Garry Ringrose is going to be penalised, and you hope he’ll get a big ban for that.

“But, at the same time, you want Ireland to get up to 15 after 55 minutes.”

A WOMAN has spoken of her hellish three month ordeal of being kidnapped, raped, and forced to drink from a dog bowl after a desperate early morning escape.

The unnamed 27-year-old was allegedly snatched and tortured by a sick and twisted truck driver Karel N. from Sirem in the northwest of the Czech Republic.

After fleeing the house of horrors around 3 am on February 16, the woman, who had a chain around her neck, begged neighbours for help before recounting the Fritzl-like hell she had endured.

The woman was allegedly kept in the basement of the Sirem house for over three months where she was chained up and held in filthy conditions and forced to drink from a dog bowl.

A neighbour who helped rescue the woman told the Czech newspaper Mlada fronta Dnes: “She had no hair and a thick chain with a huge lock around her neck; she was just skin and bones.

“She said he shaved her head and rarely gave her anything to eat, just sometimes a little bread and water from a bowl, like a dog.

“He stripped her naked, chained her up, beat her, raped her and did other crazy things to her.”

The woman told her neighbours how she managed to escape using the chain that had held her hostage on a bed.

“She [said she] was tied to a heavy bed,” the neighbour said.

“She managed to pull the chain out and use it to climb out of the window.”

Her abuser was not home when she managed her escape, another local said.

After approaching the neighbours, they helped remove the chain from her neck and phoned the emergency services.

Her ordeal appears to echo that of Elisabeth Fritzl who was abused by her evil father Josef for years in his cellar in Austria.

Karel N has since been arrested and reportedly knew the victim.

Locals have described the truck driver as “sociable” but local media has brought his dark past to light.
