Chiefs vs Bulls

[Gunner]

Refs going red, TMO wants to look again...

Correct decision should be red

[Stargazer]

Yellow, because he missed? WTF

[mariner4life]

Cowardice. Absolute cowardice.

[antipodean]

WTF is the TMO on? He should be sacked. That's a disgrace.

[Stargazer]

You'd expect the Citing Commissioner to step in and cite him anyway, because it should have been red.

@hooroo do you need a tissue?

I’ve used my shirt

[Gunner]

Oh wow, swinging arm to the head only yellow?

Love the consistency around these cards for high shots

[gt12]

That’s a stiff arm, should be red.

Will be changed by the authorities later and he’ll get a holiday.

[Tim]

What are the exact rules? Pretty lucky not to get red.

[Stargazer]

@tim "stiff arm" isn't in the rules; I think "force" is, but not sure.

[mariner4life]

A shame? Get. Fucked. Cooper you complete cock.

[gt12]

There is no midfield, so of course we need a silly chip kick.

[Donsteppa]

Thought that was a classic case of going for the tackle when the player falls over. Yellow card fine with me. I know you can make a strong case for a red under the current laws, but they're partly why I'm still clinging to the cricket season too.

[Hooroo]

We Suuuuuuuck at Rugby. Retallick excepted.

How did we beat the Blues???

[mariner4life]

Well, that was ordinary all round by us. Fuck me.

[gt12]

My goodness, umm, straight ref?

Stiff-arm is in the laws. It's dangerous play.

[Gunner]

Finally a kick that comes off for the Chiefs.

I suppose if you throw enough stones at the window, one will hit eventually.

Good finish Alaimalo

[ShadowTrooper]

Alaimalo - beats 3 to score!!

[gt12]

Law 9.13 I think:

A player must not tackle an opponent early, late or dangerously. Dangerous tackling includes, but is not limited to, tackling or attempting to tackle an opponent above the line of the shoulders even if the tackle starts below the line of the shoulders.
