@Victor-Meldrew not sure anybody is arguing that Peyper got it completely wrong, are they?
He reffd to the rules, for sure.

My point is that while the rules are clear-cut to help the Refs come to a decision quickly, those rules can be tweaked to allow better decisions to be made by taking away the time pressure.

a) living in the planet of real time thinking on slow motions movements
b) having no thoughts about Keenan's role in the collisiona) Yeah, dismiss us as not being able to watch a replay at full speed, ok cool.
b) Keenan was the attacker, it's not on him - sure he dips, but that doesn't mean Steward can go in upright.
I think if Keenan doesn’t gather the ball then it’s called as a rugby incident, possibly a penalty to Ireland but probably not. Once Keenan does gather the ball the whole scenario changes because the obligation is now on Steward to make a legal tackle or avoid contact, and he does neither.
Awards for concussion injuries are a massive financial threat to World Rugby and individual Unions so I wouldn’t be holding my breath waiting for a change of interpretation anytime soon.

The correct call.

Which makes a mockery of the guidelines.

Haven't seen decision, but press cites existence of mitigating factors.

Well well well. What have we here.
Grand slam is already in the cupboard though isn’t it. These things matter and they need to start getting them right at the time of the incident.

Defence coach extraordinaire Shaun Edwards believes it wasn’t even a penalty.

Whilst you’re right about the GS, we’re were hanging on by the skin of our teeth and coming up in second place in virtually every aspect of the game. Irish nerves early on kept us in the game.

Regardless of the rights and wrongs of this particular incident, he’s hit it right on the nail about refs taking more responsibility. We’re increasingly seeing the TMO effectively reffing the game and pushing the ref down a particular path.

The conversations amongst the ref's AR's and TMO are a disgrace. The pregnant pauses, the "let me show you another angle" instead of saying " no Jaco X or Y happened". Arse covering and self preservation society members the lot of em..
I very rarely see an honest climbdown or change of mind between ref and TMO.
The system is shite.

I'd happily take the decision on Red Cards away from the Ref and let the TMO decide while a yellow is running. Would stop the farce we've seen with Steward, speed up the game and reduce bad decisions.

That's because they are very aware their conversation is being broadcast. I have said it before, the conversation between the TMO, refs and assistants needs to be private.

It's up there with the Benjamin Fall red card against BB that got overturned. WR are not providing any sort of useful guidance to drive consistent decisionmaking. It's a damn lottery, it's wrong, it sucks, and it's throwing refs under the bus.
Personally, I think there has to be responsibility for carriers to stay high - dropping into contact must reduce the onus on the tackler; not completely, but has to count for something.
Bloody full game reds being dished out like candy as well. IF you are seroius about them, stay with 20 min reds assessed by TMO off the field. Super leading the way with sensible laws at last.

Further to my rant, if players can't agree, refs can't agree with judiciaries, punters on here can't agree, commentators can't agree on what is a 'play on' or 'red card', it tells you the decision making framework is completely borked. Someone made the point above and it's a good one - the arguments should be penalty/YC, or YC/RC, but not 'play on'/Red Card.
World Rugby can piss off, I'm really unhappy with them. Refs are not getting anything meaningful to support them, no portfolio of decisions with proper examples to help. It's all vague, meaningless corporate waffling bullshit

A game has been potentially wrecked, a Ref hung out to dry, head contact rules thrown into confusion, players being told cards are a lottery and spectators confused.
What a bloody mess.

if it's a lottery, people will roll the dice.
IF there are clear, achievable frameworks about what people need to do, wiht consistent enforcement, behaviour changes quickly. The randomness is super frustrating.
