Some photos of where the penalty was given and where the kick was taken from. Not fuming about it personally but O'Keeffe showing his incompetence.
The ARs should be taken to task on this as well - they're supposed to assist in marking the position of the infringement.

Haven’t seen a good still photo compilation with circles and arrows showing NZ rugby cheating since some of the Aussies left the Fern.
Rugby is officially back.

Given the two leg-ups the Chiefs got from the YC (x2) I don’t think moaning about that penalty is really worth it.
Taking the coaching staff out for a beating though...
Can’t see how that second yellow is a “leg up”
The player cocked up and illegally prevented a try. Law book says that’s a yellow. -
This was hidden in the media release with the referee announcements for the weekend.
Hurricanes lock Scott Scrafton will serve no further suspension after he received two yellow cards during their win over the Chiefs in Hamilton on Sunday. His second yellow card subsequently meant he then saw red. He is free to play against the Highlanders this weekend.
Not surprising, considering they were relatively minor offences.
I guess this also means that Sam Cane comes off wihtout even a Commissioner's warning (off-field yellow) for that late wack on Perenara. -
@Stargazer should be given a reward

No he shouldn't. It was obviously accidental and TJ deserved a proper whacking for blocking the running line.
If anything TJs acting afterward deserved a razzie.

The mere idea he should be penalised for two players running into the same space is ridiculous. As is the "late tackle" explanation. There's no tackle, just a halfback getting in the way of a flanker.
