Yellow, red doesn't matter. Chiefs field position against 14, the game is over once again thanks to officiating bullshit.

Hahaha fucking what?

[Stargazer]

@Kirwan Because of a card again.

We have been playing much better in this half.

At 67 minutes the game will be over so giving a yellow card doesn't matter. Either way it ended the game. Who knew a head clash was a penalisable offence?

Didn’t learn their lesson last week about tackle technique then did they?

Perenara shouldn't be anywhere near captaincy.

Open your other eye. The head clash prevented it being a red card.

@Kirwan TJP was just unlucky in that tackle. Nothing like Lomax' "tackle".

TJ was in a good position to make the tackle. Try to coach him to do better and what would you even say? Have a lower centre of gravity? He wrapped his arms There is no lesson to learn - the rules cannot be complied with.

Safest way is to take his knees out low.....

Ah, Pouri, so close!

It's the way the game is reffed these days. Adjust or lose.

He wanted to smash I’m him and got his timing wrong. If he put away the red mist and just tackled him he would have been fine. I think the Canes are coached to tackle too high.

But it's stupid. Why blame TJ? Players cannot comply.

It's safe but ineffective in a lot of situations and not how any rugby player is coached.

Players not contacting the head?

[Stargazer]

A Chiefs player injured?

The problem is the fans who try to defend the indefensible. It's a clear yellow card.
