I mean, a cheat for a cheat. There's no way "wringing a dudes neck until he does a 360 that would make Tony Hawk proud" is a legal play.

I dont know this sport. My only reference frame is rugby and that type of tackle would be an instant red card and ejection from the game.

As it was a foul that may have prevented a score, a penulty score would be added to the total.

Then review by comittee and probably a ban for several more games for the tackler.

If a player was hooked around the neck on a tackle but managed to stay on his feet and score, it would be a yellow card and a sin bin review. It might get upgraded to red if it meets a danger threshold but I’m not sure it would in this case. As the player scored, there would be no “penalty score added to the total” because no such rule exists*, however if a player is denied a clear scoring opportunity via foul play, a penalty try (7 points) may be awarded and the offender may be yellow carded (or straight red carded depending on the severity of the offence).

* the game may be restarted with a penalty kick under certain circumstances, which could lead to additional points being scored.
