I’m behind the play, but I’m unsure how Dixon’s tackle is only yellow.
No malice he says, but most red cards we see these days have no malice, so it’s irrelevant.
Just wait until you see a red mitigated to a penalty 😬
I cannot believe that we started at red when a guy literally tripped over, versus yellow for a tackle where a guy aimed with force to hit the key playmaker of the opposite team in the head with his shoulder.
To be fair, the shoulder to head did start at red, they just wrongly mitigated it down to yellow saying it wasn't directly to the head.

Lovely from the Ioane brothers
Looked like an NFL play that may have practised in the backyard

Blues halves and their option taking leaves a lot to be desired.
By 'a lot' you mean everything?

Was a mile forward and were lucky to get 3 there, but lets be honest, Ash Dixon should have seen red for what he did.

For falling over? Not even a penalty
Tight game, enjoying it at the club

@act-crusader Nah pretty hard to give that one yellow when Nareki's contact forced the slip imo.
If it got given yellow however, I could see the reasoning behind it but penalty only fair call imo.

He made himself fall over by trying to shove Nareki out of the way

Game still over. Highlanders endeavour just isn't gonna overcome blues power. Especially with these mistakes and poor decisions by leaders.
One thing I've noticed about Parkinson which must count heavily (geddit) against him...his concrete boots look even heavier than the ones Papalii used to wear.
Nareki playing his way out of AB selection musings.

If it wasn't direct contact to the head, the starting point isn't red, but yellow.
