@voodoo I thought it was Kerevi chasing him?
Oops

It was Fathers Day and I was 2 bottles deep already, cut me some slack bro...

I have no sympathy and (professionally speaking) wish him all the worse.
In a world where he could have taken on many high-paying coaching jobs, I still don't understand why - as a kiwi - you would choose to coach a team where the key metric would be taking the Bledisloe off us.

Why Paolo Odogwu poses All Black Jordie Barrett a potential problem
New Zealand’s management team have confirmed they will be defending Jordie Barrett's red card during the All Blacks’ 38-21 win over Australia.

@bovidae why is his nickname Meg?

If dangerous contact with the head is a red card offence (no matter the intent, nor the outcome), then shouldn't whoever knocked Savea and Codie's heads be carded too? Just cos they weren't out in the open, doesn't mean they aren't dangerous.
The ref probably made the right call on the Barret face kick, but that makes a mockery of the idea that rugby wants to protect player welfare. Rugby only wants to protect the image of player welfare.

... and Hooper's facial cut from Retallick.
The key for me is foreseeability of action. Lifting your sprigs, even in reflex, can directly lead to sprigs in faces. The link to Paolo Odogwu is clear - no intent, but a reckless action. That's what will probably sink JB here.
The other contacts arguably aren't part of reckless actions- tackles gone wrong (Taylor, Savea), or just dynamic running (Retallick). So I can see a differentiator.

I think an example would be BBBR kicking Hooper in the face and opening up a decent gash. If a boot to the face is an automatic red then BBBR can count himself pretty lucky.
Fucken dammit. Too slow.

Agreed. Running with the ball isn't reckless, lifting your boot studs up while catching a ball — is.
There's a thread on reddit with 4(!) other examples. So it's not that uncommon. And they're all red cards too. Tevita Nabura playing for the Highlanders copped a red and a 6 week ban.
What might save Jordie is he didn't flick his leg as much as others, he just hung it out.

Do you have a link to that thread by chance?

Not sure how this will go,lifting your boot studs while catching a ball is reckless is, so is jumping leading with a knee if someone cops knee in face, but almost everyone does it as it almost impossible to jump up with legs straight.

Yep, but it's a degree and a proximity thing. Knees are close to the body, and if you hit it, it's like a tackle. In fairness to Kerevi, he was a long way back, and waiting to tackle. Raised sprigs make that bloody hard, and dangerous.
I don't like the outcome, as it's reflexvely reckless, but I can see the logic and the likely suspension incoming.
One thing I haven't seen (and haven't seen video again) is - did JB get bumped on his way up? If so, it may be a minor mitigation of some form (the Benjamin Fall defence, right)
