That hair pull / tackle on Leyds should have been a yellow card. Disgusting.

Yep, swiftly followed by the yellow for the idiot bokke captain.

Captain is doing his role.

@justanotherfan which is to try and go after Folau then realise he's the same size so change tack and pin Genia on the ground and rub his forearm in his face? Man he's tough.

Nothing worse than a Kiwi ref.
-
@justanotherfan haaaaaahahahahaha. Good on ya wallabies. Saffas can't even win at home. At least your guys scored some points. Certificates for everyone!
-
Nothing separating these two (mediocre) teams....

Not sure what you are referring to specifically or if it is just bait but i somewhat agree in this case.
This ref is out of his depth at super rugby level. Don't know why he is doing internationals.
I guess it is just two lowly ranked teams though. -
"He grabbed the guy around the collar," Cheika said.
When further probed on the issue, Cheika was even more adamant.
"You've got to watch the vision (replay) ... he got him by the collar," the coach re-iterated.
"He didn't come in and grab him by the hair. Who tackles somebody by the hair? Forget about it ... it's a non-issue."

Just saw highlights. Seemed like an entertaining game but way too many mistakes. Some real headless chicken shit there.

Two things.

Re Folau. Am a bit torn on this. Reckon he started with the collar but slipped up to hair. No real intent but it was high and dangerous. Yellow for me. Not sure if it gets cited as possibly not red card threshold.

Skosan's try. One for the gear grinding thread. I have no issue with having two attacking backlines and using the "second man play", but it grinds my gears when the screen in front continues running into the defence to disrupt them and create holes. Brast and 20 made the holes for Skosan to run in into.

Definitely - He grabbed the collar, turned out he had hair as well (insert joke about the guy having girly long hair) - the grip on collar slipped, he ended up just having a grip on the poor fluffybunny's hair, took a little too long to release that.
On the slow-motion replays... that looks real bad. In real time, he was probably a bit slow in realising he was holding a bunch of some guys hair... maybe instinctively thought there was a BJ in the works.
