@wairau Someone has gone to some significant effort with that, but to be honest it shows me bugger all.
The first seven frames are all lead up work.
What's important is how we get from frame seven (with Marx's left leg being lifted) to frame nine where he's (presumably) lying there injured.
Frame 8 shows someone's leg sticking out at a strange angle. To be honest I'm wondering how the hell Ardie managed to get Marx's legs there - if indeed they're Marx's.
But more I'm wondering why the guy who compiled this didn't expend his efforts between frames 7 and 9!

Red lines are fine but I far prefer arrows otherwise I don't know what I'm meant to be looking at.

lol at the comediennes above
Yeah, not pretty, sorry, if I have time I will revert. Till then, it's sufficient. Took all of 2 minutes to make. The lines point out the 2 protagonists. Yes, 1 is Marx's leg sticking straight up. For me, dangerous, perhaps yellow card or citing. Others? I googled Marky Marx and pro-writers are blaming him being exhausted for the injury-they're blind-but no one replayed the incident. -
all the people talking about frame by frame on Moody -so I spent a few minutes revisiting this video. I am interested in other's opinions about fair punishment for Savea. Too late, I know, but just for the debate.
To avoid mess/page confusion, I deleted the earlier images...

@Wairau Im unsure what you are claiming.
It wasn't a lift nor was it a neck roll. What was the illegality? Savea held Marx and went to round. Marx looks to have eventually gone off his feet and rolled over the ruck. His injury was caused by trying to stay up with one leg planted while his body was being pulled elsewhere.
-
Well, I am not sure if it is illegal-seems very dangerous and directly caused an injury, I am seeking other's opinions. Savea has tackled him. Not lifted him per se, but has in effect tipped him and purposefully caused him to do a somersault and dangerously dumped him on his head.
-
I think I said dumped on his head, landed on his back. Picture 4 shows him heading down (then camera zooms out). Picture 5 shows he has completely flipped over. I can show the inbetweens, but logically they show him flipped upside down-from a distance. Would you like to see that?
@crucial I actually slowed down my video, to allow me to go frame by frame, and it is a neck roll. Lam is on the other side of Marx and Savea. Both Lam and Savea grab Marx around the neck and the added weight of Lam helps tip Marx downwards to the side, then Savea lifts him up and completes the flip over, onto his head and back. Clear.
@crucial said in Hurricanes v Lions:
If I was defending a citing here I would be arguing that injury was caused by Marx fighting against the tackle. It was an accident.
and you would be wrong....
Edit: Marx is out of the series Boks Vs England, which is a shame.

@rebound Agree on pts 1-3, disagree on 4. Dangerous tackles get punished all the time, as they should.
You are making a blanket generalization but I am making specific points about this tackle. 1. Everyone missed it. 2. It was needlessly dangerous and perhaps should have been cited. 3. If this had happened to Ben Smith in a test against South Africa, and caused similar injury, plenty of people would be condemning the tackle, and dangerous back flip.
Shades of a certain tackle in a Lions test....
Cheers. -
I've gone back to my recorded game. Yeah there is no punishment required as nothing was illegal. It's legal to roll someone off the ruck, sadly this time it resulted in an injury. It was neither a neck roll nor a spear tackle, he did not get upside down like BoD. If people were cited every time they caused an injury, there be no one left to play. Just bad luck.

@machpants Well, please slow down your recording and check again.....he did get upside down, he flipped over (you can see it happening and the resulting position is evidence-he was twisted and flipped over the ruck, not rolled off the ruck. He was held around the neck by two players and speared down then over.
I am not arguing about all the other injuries and tackles, so your straw man is needless. This one was missed because it happened so quickly as the camera zoomed out and was not clear. But, we should be honest, not gloss over it just because Savea is popular.
I was just curious if anyone sees or cares. I guess not. Carry on, then. -

on here that would delight in sticking the boot into him if this was true.
