Over the horizontal, driving him into the ground. Should be a red. Don't think he'll get it though.

It's the very definition really

Ah there it is.

I like Pearce as a ref.

Only reason it isn't head first is he used his arm to stop it

Yup stupid rule, if Banks kept his arm away, could've forced a red

Calmly handled

[Stargazer]

THe only thing saving Kolisi from a red might be that the Wallabies' player didn't land on his head.

Fucking hell he did drive down on that tho.

[No Quarter]

Lucky to get away with a yellow (I agree with the call)

Mate it's a fucking red all day. He lifted and drove.

[Kirwan]

Great try. Quade got monstered

[Machpants]

Yes! Maybe last pad forward? Welcome to a team that don't play your style, boks

[chimoaus]

Forward I think.

[antipodean]

Clear YC. Never a red because Banks didn't land on his head.

[Bones]

Imagine what the Springboks would do to the ABs.

I don't think he did, I think it was just the motion of the tackle.

Wouldn't have been surprised if a red was given though.

Extraordinarily stupid from Kolisi.

Still had the presence of mind to pass it. Noah would’ve coughed that up.

[Nepia]

Did they check that pass from Kerevei?

I don't think he did, I think it was just the motion of the tackle.

That's the point I guess: how much do you expect the tackler to stop once he realises it's past horizontal?
