@taniwharugby so good too see those cheats not prosper. Sadly just a friendly

Stargazer

Geez, a suspension of 5 weeks!

The ban comes for "disrespecting the authority of a match official" and his actions were deemed to be on the "upper level of the severity scale".

The decision:

@Stargazer morons, out of touch as always

he's off the ground, i seem to remember that being a penalty?

Tim

@mariner4life I approve of it not being called. Don't jump for passes if you don't want to be exposed.

oh totally, i was just bringing up a bitter past episode

that's a good shot on a poor sucker given an awful pass

Stargazer

@Tim Not jump to catch a ball and just let the opposition get it?

Tim

@Stargazer Well, you might get driven back.

Stargazer

@Tim The tackler should just get his timing right.

I saw that on FB the other day, complete with hyperbolic headline:

Watch: South African fans erupt as Sharks player hit with horror tackle in Currie Cup semi-final

Oh it was Rugby Pass, I think I get thier feed on my FB because people I know follow it...

No way is that a penalty, nor was the one that Sinckler fluffybunny won for the LIons, and got all stroppy about it too.

If it is, it opens up another avenue to milk penalties and disrupt defensive patterns (and not in a good way)

Machpants

How not to kick the ball out on the full with time up...

?

Bones

@Machpants classic. He didn't even have to kick it, just fall over holding it.
