“It’s the law that’s the issue,” says Jeff Wilson. Agreed. It’s a stupid, stupid law. Referees need some discretion in these cases. There was no ill intent from the French player. It just ruins the entire game.
Actually, is the law or the interpretation? Because I can’t find anything directing a red card from a quick look at the actual laws.

@mrdenmore said in All Blacks v France Test #2:
I’m sure there’s a valid reason for the red card, but we know that all it will do is feed the prevailing northern hemisphere media narrative, including its proxies in NZ like Mark Reason, of a conspiracy to nobble the All Blacks’ opposition.
You can never win against those people.
Nh are going to whinge about us no matter what happens providing we are winning ,
Fuck them .

JK thinks it's bollocks and Robbo is the diplomat. I wonder what Mils, veteran AB 15 thought of it?

Haha British Comms reckon the French won't give up....

Fact is the French 15 put himself at the mercy of the ref. When you do that sometimes you're lucky, other times you're not

What only 21-6? This must be a dunny flush game.

Goldie is my all time favourite player. JK was my first hero. Mils is my favourite modern AB. Who to listen to??
And why does this flanker like outside backs so much?
I need to go watch YouTube videos of kaino and jerry whacking guys

@mrdenmore still think it was really technically poor. If you are not jumping then you need to stay out. There was time to make the decision.
Maybe they could make a rule that if a player is ruled out from game by an incident such as this, they get a yellow and lose a substitute. Less impact on game for technical error.

That sending off is correct under the rules but bloody harsh. The player is in a position to catch the ball, he just doesn't put himself in danger by jumping in the air. Meanwhile Beauden jumps on top of him and gets away with nothing.
What drugs are you on? Beaudy was in the air when Fall arrived.
@shadowtrooper said in All Blacks v France Test #2:
Shit Cane gonna go for that
Lucky Parra didn't land on his head.
Huh? That's exactly my point. Beauden puts himself in a dangerous position. If Beauden wasn't there jumping at his head, the French player would have caught the ball. So it makes no sense to say he wasn't in a position to catch it. Rugby should just ban jumping for the ball if it is so inherently dangerous.
You might want to rephrase what you're saying. Beaudy was already there and in the air, not jumping at Fall's head.

Cant blsme ref for the call. His game is assessed and he gets a review. World Rugby clear and ref wants to stay on main panel.
-
Gardner also asked for confirmation from Ayoub, if Ayoub had disagreed I wonder if Gardner would have backed down.
-
@billy-tell Exactly. Whether we like it or not, it was the right call.

Unlike last week when the pom showed his YC without any consultation

Great take and run from Jordie, stupid penalty from L Whitelock snubs out the opportunity. Our forwards are hopeless tonight.
-
@billy-tell Not blaming the ref. Blaming the stupid black letter law and the lack of scope for interpretation.
