    I’m sure there’s a valid reason for the red card, but we know that all it will do is feed the prevailing northern hemisphere media narrative, including its proxies in NZ like Mark Reason, of a conspiracy to nobble the All Blacks’ opposition.

    You can never win against those people.

      JK thinks it's bollocks and Robbo is the diplomat. I wonder what Mils, veteran AB 15 thought of it?

          “It’s the law that’s the issue,” says Jeff Wilson. Agreed. It’s a stupid, stupid law. Referees need some discretion in these cases. There was no ill intent from the French player. It just ruins the entire game.

          Fact is the French 15 put himself at the mercy of the ref. When you do that sometimes you're lucky, other times you're not

              Goldie is my all time favourite player. JK was my first hero. Mils is my favourite modern AB. Who to listen to??

              And why does this flanker like outside backs so much?

                @mrdenmore still think it was really technically poor. If you are not jumping then you need to stay out. There was time to make the decision.

                Maybe they could make a rule that if a player is ruled out from game by an incident such as this, they get a yellow and lose a substitute. Less impact on game for technical error.

                  That sending off is correct under the rules but bloody harsh. The player is in a position to catch the ball, he just doesn't put himself in danger by jumping in the air. Meanwhile Beauden jumps on top of him and gets away with nothing.

                  What drugs are you on? Beaudy was in the air when Fall arrived.

                  Lucky Parra didn't land on his head.

                  Huh? That's exactly my point. Beauden puts himself in a dangerous position. If Beauden wasn't there jumping at his head, the French player would have caught the ball. So it makes no sense to say he wasn't in a position to catch it. Rugby should just ban jumping for the ball if it is so inherently dangerous.

                  You might want to rephrase what you're saying. Beaudy was already there and in the air, not jumping at Fall's head.

                    @kev That’s not a bad idea. I just think reducing a team to 14 men for the entire match because of a technical infringement is just silly and wrecks the game as a spectacle. A yellow would have been enough.

                      Cant blsme ref for the call. His game is assessed and he gets a review. World Rugby clear and ref wants to stay on main panel.

                        Gardner also asked for confirmation from Ayoub, if Ayoub had disagreed I wonder if Gardner would have backed down.

                                Great take and run from Jordie, stupid penalty from L Whitelock snubs out the opportunity. Our forwards are hopeless tonight.

                                          @kev I like the idea of red cards being 20 minutes and the player who got the red card isn't allowed to come back on after that 20 minutes is up, it has to be another player.
