Hurricanes v Crusaders

Don't disagree that it's lucky to be yellow in the context of current rulings, but I also think it SHOULD be only yellow. There was no intent to hurt (like a big punch), no way to inflict real harm if it went slightly askew (like a tip tackle or neck roll)
It was a dickhead move, and a yellow is right.
Just like there was no intent to hurt when old mate from Scotland got marched a couple of weeks ago for a forearm to the neck area going into a tackle.
This one is worse IMO, he deliberately dropped his forearm into a guy who was on the ground.

He did that to hurt him too, it’s a RC and pretty dirty

Love looks a bit like a young Cruden.
So he'll be starring for the Chiefs in a couple of years then ....
Yes Please.

NZ refs seem to look very, very hard for reasons to mitigate against cards.
I'm not sure it does us a favour when we're playing international rugby, because it seems to me that refs from most other countries are much more willing to dish cards - and our players don't learn to be disciplined enough.
I'll be pretty surprised if the judiciary don't decide that meets the red card threshold. That was actually a bit of dirt.

Wtf was that Havili?

Great IWL gets blamed for the bad lineout. He was good in the first half.
