@stargazer to be fair most jump attempts for a charge down are never a realistic shot at getting it.
@taniwharugby NH and SA teams flood the landing area with "jumpers"... Good to see it called

Did Segner push that dead?

@stockcar86 Yep.

@stockcar86 think he attempted to press it, not a deliberate knock dead

I think he accidentally knocked it dead as he was trying to grab it rather than knock it dead league style.

@kiwimurph Nobody suggested that.

Didn't say you did. But it would be a different outcome if he had.

@kiwimurph less than 1

Great argument for a twenty minute red
I'm a fairly casual observer of super rugby these days, never been a huge fan of the blues, but definitely not a fan of that decision.
Disclaimer: I also don't know the finer nuances of the new red card rules, so I'm more than happy to be told my opinion is stupid.
Surely Clark is the more vulnerable player in the air, and the ref using the justification that "he was reckless and mistimed it because he moved from the chargedown action to trying to protect himself mid air". I'd have thought that when he realised there was going to be a collision, it's natural reflex to protect oneself and that's not hugely indicative of anything more than a guy not wanting to land on his head.
Surely at some point in contact sport, you have to accept that unfortunate contact does happen. Much like a head clash. Penalty at best and move on.
@aucklandwarlord I don't disagree in principle, but that's not the current law interpretations

Now they decide to ref the attacking maul
