    I was surprised Henshaw didn't get a yellow for is head high tackle on Folau. At the 1:43:31 mark.

    I wasn’t. Anyway NZ Head high tackles are much worsest than that. They decapitate people and make their heads roll around for a while.

            The Rorschach blot reminds me of a day out at the beach when it’s raining and there’s no one around except for an old bearded man in a black robe walking with a white unicorn on a pink leash. There’s a carrot in its mouth but it’s not eaten.

            How did I do? What do you think it means?

              Sounds like the unicorn got decapitated.

                  The ground announcers picked up the music in the second half to drown out the Irish supporters. It was like a day at Lansdowne Road

                    I think you're in good company there.

                    Hate to say it but one of my fondest rugby memories is that of BOD's face at the end of the 2013 AB-Ireland test in November 2013.

                      It doesn't look good, and he might cop a ban.

                      I still think the lifter makes the end result far worse, as he acts as a fulcrum for POM. If that's a regulation contest without a lifter, I don't think it ends with POM on his head.

                      As it was, Stander stabilises POM which exacerbates the impact of the minor contact he receives, and then instead of merely being pushed back he flips over completely.

                      It can't be treated the same way as a regular 1v1 contest for the ball. You can certainly penalise Folau for the contact, but I'm not sure you can ban him for how it ended up.

                      No it doesn’t. Would look worst if the stills had arrows and accompanied by some creepy monotone voice calling him a cheat 😎

                        Jesus, to me Folau's contact with the left hand is incidental - he's already tipping over due to the initial contact and the single-lift. Incredibly harsh yellow.

                                Did the citing commisioner release anything re: the Henshaw head high?
                                I did a google search but all i can see are media stories on Folau.
                                Did it not reach a red card threshold? Just curious, so than I can keep my outragometer tuned at the correct level.

                                @Stargazer This is the sort of thing you seem to know where to find?

                                    Complete whinge fest about how Folau has been hard done by.

                                    IMO one match is lenient.

                                        Well that made things completely clear then didn't it.

                                        Run into an opponents legs by not jumping - red card on the ground, rescinded off the ground because the player was brushed 10 yards out.
                                        Jump for the ball and hit another player who was lifted by his fellow team mate creating an obvious fulcrum point - yellow on the ground, upgraded to red after and banned.

                                        Clear as mud. Good work world rugby. :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone: :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone: :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone: :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone: :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone: :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone: :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone: :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone: :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:
