    @bones I don't see it the same to be honest. I guess I was trying to say that there is now only one way to compete for the ball, jump. No jump well you didn't compete.

    I agree people charging in with no regard for others around should be penalised. But I also think that in all fairness if you launch yourself at a stationary player from 3 meters away and get flipped as a consequence that is tough shit.

    And you think that happened in this case?

          Serious question: Are the judiciary controlled by World Rugby or are they just a bunch of lawyers doing their best to come up with complicated rulings and obscure defences? WR should be annoyed by this because it undoes all the work they have put into this area in the last few years. I guarantee they won't say anything publically about it though. If it was an AB getting off on the other hand.....

          You mean like how Tu'ungafasi got off?

          Th whole reason they rubbed out the red is because Tu'ungafasi wasn't even carded. I suppose it's all down to perspective. Had it been Cane in hospital with a fractured skull, I wonder if you would have anything to say about the offending player unintentionally injuring Cane.

          I'll make it simple:

          Cane & Tu'ungafasi unintentionally injure Grosso = No card/citing
          Fall unintentionally injures Barrett = Off for 70 odd min with a red card

          It looks so bent that WR had to do something - And it does little to console the French imo.

          I was at the game, and literally everyone was talking about how they didnt pay to watch 15-14. That call killed the game. Red cards need a 10min binning followed by an enforced subbing of the offending player.

          Anyways, the game may have been forgettable, but the atmosphere generated by the sellout crowd redeemed the night. Will be back for the AB vs Bok game. Probably be a bittersweet moment.

          Isn't that exactly his point? The chairman of world rugby publicly tweeted his personal undermining of his ref, TMO and Judiciary last week after being badgered by 'neutral' media on his twitter account.

          What will he do this week? Nothing, because Reuben at stuff.co.nz social media desk has no followers ....

            Forgive me for intimating we might take a leaf out of AFL books, but surely those crazies have a rule to reduce the carnage which might otherwise result from their marking antics?

            Big difference between the two is that they more often have a pack of guys all moving in the same direction. The collisions therefore have less force and, more often, guys land safely. With rugby, guys contesting are almost always moving in opposite directions, which increases the impact of the collisions and, in turn, creates more risk.

            I think in AFL and Basketball this would be an ejection. I believe their rules mean if you take out a jumpers legs from under them then it wasn't a realistic jump.

            I'm no expert though.

            I also believe- If they went shoulder to shoulder and someone fell on their head, by some fluke, then unlike rugby (until the judiciary just turned everything upside down ....) they don't rule on outcome from a fair jump?

              I had a quick look at the AFL rulebook and this may be the clause in which it is covered.

              A Player makes Prohibited Contact with an opposition Player if the Player: (a) makes contact or attempts to make contact with any part of their body with an opposition Player in a manner likely to cause injury; (i) above the shoulders (including the top of the shoulders); or (ii) below the knees.

                  It seems to me that ALB has been used as the scapegoat. They have an unpopular decision which is correct under the rules so rather than address the problem with the rules, they deflect by blaming it on something irrelevant.

                            That’s a truly shit analysis.
                            What about McKenzie showing that he is a world class 10?
                            Won’t he long before he overtakes Barrett

                            You are taking the piss right? Thought McKenzie well and truly showed that hes not a first fives asshole.

                            Well I don’t really watch rugby but I know talent when I see it. Dmac will start at the World Cup

                              Couldn't resist a slow mo look at RC.
                              It seems clear, at least to me, that had Fall done everything the same, other than jumping much higher, no card would have been justified. I don't believe that he wasn't in a position to challenge. The tip over was caused by BB jumping much higher (or Fall much lower) and catching his raised knee on Fall's thigh.
                              If both players jump high (or low) there is a big collision, but little chance of tip over.
                              If it had been AFL Fall would have been a foot or two above where he was and unlikely an injury would have resulted.
                              No idea how one can legislate to ensure both players contesting a high kick jump at roughly similar heights.

                                And this time last year IIRC when WR were clamping down on contests in the air, I bemoaned the fact people were being sent off for simply not jumping as high as another competitor. The pendulum has now swung so far back the other way, I'm surprised Beaudy hasn't been called to account for dangerous play.

                                      Look on the bright side. Now the law's been clarified, Beaudy, Rieko and Jordie can engineer something, keeping their eyes on the ball and take out Mike Brown at Twickenham in November......

                                      I don't think anything has been clarified, I still expect a red next time someone does that. Unless, maybe, you brush another player within a 5m radius of the catcher?

                                        @rapido I dunno, I expect refs will be shit scared of issuing one now for fear of being called out publicly as getting it wrong.

                                        Test 1 Pearce was let down by his TMO & Assistants, this week Gardner has been let down by the Judiciary, who incidentally also played a hand in making a hash of the non-citing and subsequent warning to Ofa as well...what will game 3 turn up.
