Sonny Bill Williams admits he's had no defence to ribbing from team-mates following his bizarre yellow card offence against France in Paris. The All Blacks star was sent to the bin after a deliberate knock back last week. Williams revealed Australian match referee Angus Gardner later informed him he shouldn't have been shown a yellow card for the incident.
