    I saw his yellow. I thought there was another one. I must have misread the visuals on the screen.

    Choat was first, both for head high tackles.

    @Kirwan both looked pretty soft to me, the Choat one the attackers knee was almost on the ground, the Akira one looked like a scrag of the collar (although highlights didnt replay his one)

        @KiwiMurph Team high count. He was one of my M.O.M. votes for that and that he was pretty much error free in an understandably messy kind of game.

          Just watching replay now. I thought the Akira one was super marginal head high - Choat a clear arm to the forehead, but Akira's was tough

          just went full GAGR without the arrows. You can see him reach across and grab Blue 18 jersey. He rides him to the ground. It's high, but I don't think it was a head high. Marginal penalty for me

          you can see him mid turn here

          Still, it's in the books now. Remarkable effort by Lay to win a penalty at the scrum - shows the relative power of Romano and Godohue, compared to Darry I reckon

            One of them was direct yellow.
            The other was just a penalty but they were on a warning for repeated offences.

                @nzzp spot on re that power in the 2nd row ,hearing that Tom Robinson has taken another head knock and might be in doubt for the QF

                      just catching up with the second half now.

                      The first Blues try - Akira a really strong carry, and well finished by Suafoa. He looks a physical specimen.

                      But before that Zarn threw a monster 30 m pass - just an absolute bullet. He's some player

                        that Romano try is classic. He looks and moves like Homer Simpson crashing over for teh try. Awesome. He looks good in Blue (white)
