      At least a yellow. Penalty only is a bit soft.

        They'll say yellow because two players have collided.

        Or they'll mitigate it down from a red to just a penalty

          They are. I'm astonished tbh but well done Pickerill.

          Still neither decision is applying the foul play principles correctly.

            I’m behind the play, but I’m unsure how Dixon’s tackle is only yellow.

            No malice he says, but most red cards we see these days have no malice, so it’s irrelevant.

              That was clumsy and careless, should have been yellow. The comms are idiots.

                Just wait until you see a red mitigated to a penalty 😬

                    I think at least one of that commentary team is coked up.

                        And some want him in the ABs.

                        The tackling from the Landers forwards has stepped up a notch.

                          I cannot believe that we started at red when a guy literally tripped over, versus yellow for a tackle where a guy aimed with force to hit the key playmaker of the opposite team in the head with his shoulder.

                              Meanwhile hardly any rugby is played. How about stopping the clock with penalties and give the kicker 20 seconds to do his thing. So much unproductive time.

                                      With their forwards they should just be grinding them down.

                                        Energetic? He's slow to rucks and even slower to clear the ball.
