    That hair pull / tackle on Leyds should have been a yellow card. Disgusting.

          @justanotherfan which is to try and go after Folau then realise he's the same size so change tack and pin Genia on the ground and rub his forearm in his face? Man he's tough.

            Skosan makes up for that pathetic non attempt on Koroibete.

              Man Coetzee really lacks any kind of oomph on attack.

                Moore arguing with the ref because he wasn't allowed to advance to ten metres from where Jantjies was taking the shot. Surely he knows that.

                        With that draw, the Springboks and Wallabies just handed the RC to the All Blacks!

                          @stargazer don't really think the ABs are going to lose in Argieland.

                          Funny old season for us. Couldn't shut out the ABs or quite get over the Boks. Could be looking at 4 wins instead of 1.

                            Not sure what you are referring to specifically or if it is just bait but i somewhat agree in this case.
                            This ref is out of his depth at super rugby level. Don't know why he is doing internationals.
                            I guess it is just two lowly ranked teams though.

                              "He grabbed the guy around the collar," Cheika said.

                              When further probed on the issue, Cheika was even more adamant.

                              "You've got to watch the vision (replay) ... he got him by the collar," the coach re-iterated.

                              "He didn't come in and grab him by the hair. Who tackles somebody by the hair? Forget about it ... it's a non-issue."

                                Our eye doctor was already a nightmare at NPC level. I don't get how he's been able to progress through the ranks so quickly. He debuted as an ITM Cup ref in 2013, SR in 2015, international in 2016.

                                    Just saw highlights. Seemed like an entertaining game but way too many mistakes. Some real headless chicken shit there.

                                      I wonder if that should be a penalty similar to a shoulder tackle riding up? TBF, the tackle on the collar is likely penalisable on its own under today's reffing.

                                        Two things.

                                        1. Re Folau. Am a bit torn on this. Reckon he started with the collar but slipped up to hair. No real intent but it was high and dangerous. Yellow for me. Not sure if it gets cited as possibly not red card threshold.

                                        2. Skosan's try. One for the gear grinding thread. I have no issue with having two attacking backlines and using the "second man play", but it grinds my gears when the screen in front continues running into the defence to disrupt them and create holes. Brast and 20 made the holes for Skosan to run in into.

                                          Two things.

                                          1. Re Folau. Am a bit torn on this. Reckon he started with the collar but slipped up to hair. No real intent but it was high and dangerous. Yellow for me. Not sure if it gets cited as possibly not red card threshold.

                                          Definitely - He grabbed the collar, turned out he had hair as well (insert joke about the guy having girly long hair) - the grip on collar slipped, he ended up just having a grip on the poor fluffybunny's hair, took a little too long to release that.
                                          On the slow-motion replays... that looks real bad. In real time, he was probably a bit slow in realising he was holding a bunch of some guys hair... maybe instinctively thought there was a BJ in the works.
