    Hungus is some one who holds the ball and doesn't pass, he blew a try by not passing to unmarked player, pretty game defining moment.

    Good game of footy that. Wales completely fell apart and Argentina took full toll. Bit of niggle always helps a game in my eyes

    Absolutely loved the reffing of the head contact. Yes head contact but no foul play. Check the player for concussion. Perfect

    Pity the next won't get reffed like that.

    Looking forward to the reaction if one of your mob gets clattered like that

    Come on, you've been here long enough to know I won't care. He fell in to it.

    By the laws still a penalty, even if an accident.

    I'd be screaming for a card. But, also:

    Looking at the process, and rewatching the incident, it seems pretty clear to me that Dickson shat the bed.

    Law 20: Dangerous play in a ruck or maul.
    A ) A player must not charge into a ruck or maul. Charging includes any contact made without binding onto another player in the ruck or maul.
    B ) A player must not make contact with an opponent above the line of the shoulders.

    So that's a clear "Yes" to the first 2 questions.

    1. What was the degree of danger?
      Well, it meets the direct contact, high speed, and dynamic criteria (and arguably some others). So that's RC territory.

    2. Is there any mitigation?
      Yup, Tompkins was falling. So that means it's downgraded to YC.

    It's a fairly well defined process (whether you agree with it or not), so how the heck they came up with no penalty is a mystery for the ages.
