Game over. First match ruined. How many more?

By Lavinini

[westcoastie]

If Farrell was upright thats on the chest/shoulder. but onus on Argie to get lower.

[Bones]

It's Lavanini. I want to feel sorry for him, but he's definitely got form. If he hasn't learnt by now...

[MajorRage]

Sorry yes not clear. It’s the right decision.

[No Quarter]

Game ruined

[Rapido]

Clear red, no arguments with current protocols.

But, I'm off to watch Netflix.

Save my enthusiasm for Jap v Sam.

Time to read a book.

[Yeetyaah]

Ironic that it's on Farrell again. Lavanini has always been a dirty player. Rats, I really wanted Argentina to get up.

[MrDenmore]

Imagine paying money to watch that. Ruined the entire game. Stupid system. Dud product. People will stop watching rugby if they’re going to be this precious.

[Stargazer]

One hour of 15 v 14. Unless England get a man sent off soon, this game is over.

They are professional athletes.

The shortest player on the pitch is most probably 5' 8"

That's 68 inches of height to tackle.

He chose to target the top 12-18 inches.

Evolove or die.

Correct decision.

Yeah it’s a shame from a spectator point of view

[African Monkey]

@booboo Exactly. Nothing to do with the officials.

Japanese got it right didn't they, get them low, behind the gain line.

Quite right, targeting the head should be encouraged.

[Billy Tell]

Lavanini with a high shot.

Never seen that from him before.

Tool.

[Yeetyaah]

Farrell trying to talk the card down to the ref just then? Or was he arguing about an HIA?

[Damo]

It's the right call. No question.

However that doesn't change the fact that this has almost certainly ruined the game. I reckon 20 minutes and then a sub can come on is the way to go.

[African Monkey]

@MrDenmore Are you serious?
