That’s a truly shit analysis.
What about McKenzie showing that he is a world class 10?
Won’t he long before he overtakes BarrettYou are taking the piss right? Thought McKenzie well and truly showed that hes not a first fives asshole.
Well I don’t really watch rugby but I know talent when I see it. Dmac will start at the World Cup
That, is brilliant. You should really take up sports betting with an astute mind like that.

Couldn't resist a slow mo look at RC.
It seems clear, at least to me, that had Fall done everything the same, other than jumping much higher, no card would have been justified. I don't believe that he wasn't in a position to challenge. The tip over was caused by BB jumping much higher (or Fall much lower) and catching his raised knee on Fall's thigh.
If both players jump high (or low) there is a big collision, but little chance of tip over.
If it had been AFL Fall would have been a foot or two above where he was and unlikely an injury would have resulted.
No idea how one can legislate to ensure both players contesting a high kick jump at roughly similar heights. -
Look on the bright side. Now the law's been clarified, Beaudy, Rieko and Jordie can engineer something, keeping their eyes on the ball and take out Mike Brown at Twickenham in November......

I don't think anything has been clarified, I still expect a red next time someone does that. Unless, maybe, you brush another player within a 5m radius of the catcher?
-
@rapido I dunno, I expect refs will be shit scared of issuing one now for fear of being called out publicly as getting it wrong.
Test 1 Pearce was let down by his TMO & Assistants, this week Gardner has been let down by the Judiciary, who incidentally also played a hand in making a hash of the non-citing and subsequent warning to Ofa as well...what will game 3 turn up.
-
Yep maybe we just stop contesting the ball in the air, and at LOs to make it simpler....oh wait
-
Probably the most egregious outcome over the last two weeks is that Ofa's tackle is now recorded as being
a greaterthe example of foul play out of the two. -

@hooroo it was 1am in California and I had things that day and once it was down to 14 it was history. Why watch a game that was ruined by a red card?
I'm a simple, simple man, @broughie I still have no idea what you're on about. Did I say something about we shouldn't watch games with red cards or something?
-
@broughie said in All Blacks v France Test #2:
@hooroo It was directed at you as you may have started the initial thread. Maybe I need to learn how to post on a thread without referencing someone. I am slow in this regard.
AAhhhh I understand now.

That's the precedent isn't it. High tackle, I was bumped 2 meters away and it messed up my body angle. Not my fault.

That's this weeks argument.
People spend more time talking about judiciaries than they do the rugby this series.

TBF, that is the ruling the ABs got at Murrayfield last year. I thought it was a YC for all money but the 'obstruction' on the way to the contest was deemed enough of a mitigating factor.
To the credit of the locals in the crowd it was accepted pretty well.
