    Ireland making the All Blacks their bitch last week. England thumping the Boks this week. Welcome to the era of Northern Hemisphere Rugby dominance.

        That incident is no better than other red card incidents I've seen given.

          Is it wrong of me to hope for a red to demonstrate just what a farce the current rules are in such situations?

              Penalty only is the correct decision but would have been a yellow by the laws (arm with force to the head --> lower punishment because he was falling). Certainly hurt more than the Codie Taylor tackle...

                  To think Codie Taylor got a yellow last week for something far more innocuous

                    No yellow, just a penalty.

                    Been impressed with Brace and his team. Good reffing so far, clear consistent and letting the game flow,

                        The tackle was not a card, but 7 or 8 penalties in the 22 with a number more under advantage - could be a game changer

                              Bizarre call given the protocols that've been outlined.

                                  Vermeulin & Kolisi have been immense today. Kolisi has developed his running game hugely.

                                        Nah. It was a reckless swinging arm from some clumsy, journeyman oaf. Falling players happen all the time. You cant just cock and fire your arm at chest height and then be surprised that you happen to catch them in the head occasionally because they'd already been tackled (which said oaf must have realized was happening, unless he's even more clumsy than I've given him credit for).

                                          @sidbarret said in England vs Springbokke:

                                          @frye also correct, which further shows the protocols are wrong

                                          Nah. It was a reckless swinging arm from some clumsy, journeyman oaf. Falling players happen all the time. You cant just cock and fire your arm at chest height and then be surprised that you happen to catch them in the head occasionally because they'd already been tackled (which said oaf must have realized was happening, unless he's even more clumsy than I've given him credit for).

                                          Totally disagree. It was absolutely the right call.
