Knees lift in the jump to gain height and used as protection. It’s pretty standard technique for players. You can see he arched backward just before he caught the ball which lead to his leg raising up.
Its the direct contact to the face that will see him get some time off. They won’t ignore that.
Which is a problem for us as I don’t think we won’t to be facing the kick boks with Dmac as fullback. JBs height would
Be invaluable along with his kicking from hand.Especially when you consider the games are in sub tropical Townsville. The Boks won’t want a fast paced game and will kick the crap out of it.
Mate, I think red card was fair enough, but will not be surprised if it seen as enough. There will be lawyers, and experts on dynamics of jumping etc to show why this or that happened, and I suspect the fact that Marika was moving into his space will have a lot to do with outcome, even Dave Rennie was adamant it was completely accidental in press conference etc and think just maybe the board will say that is enough punishment.

That would be reasonable IMHO

@crucial that is the problem, it wasnt a kick, it was reckless use of ones foot
No way that they should start the process at the same place as someone that deliberately kicked someones head.
That's what they have used in the past for similar.
Have looked at regs and yes mid-range dangerous tackle is 6 weeks, kicking (irrespective of contact point)is 8.
If they charge him with kicking then it should be thrown out as that is under the section 9.12 A player must not physically abuse anyone. Physical abuse includes, but is not limited to:.......
No way can that be classed as physical abuse.
As said above I think 'reckless' is a stretch by definition as well.

Fucken dammit. Too slow.
What are you, Scott Barrett playing 6?
If he was slower he wouldn't have overrun the ruck leaving a gaping hole.
-
I think we all have to remember is that contact to the head should be rightfully jumped on, but Retallic's boot was what caused Hooper's cut to face, completely accidental as he was running through, so next argument could be, you have to look where you put feet when running! Does anyone on here think that should of been RCed, as he did a lot more damage.
-
One of those things is coachable.
I was watching the game whilst at a birthday party, and although I didn't think JB deserved a RC, the moment it happened I turned to another one of the guys and said - that's a RC.
Whether it should be or not is different, but with catching being a coached skill I assume they want to make sure that nothing dodgy creeps in with players raising feet etc.
Again, I don't think it was intentional, but it is coachable.

That's Hooper's fault and he should've been penalised - have to be on your feet to play the game.

Nice.
You also can't run in to take a player in the air, so if you get a foot in the face - tough.
What happened to personal responsibility? If Jordie was reckless, so was he about his own safety, shouldn't be that close to a player in the air anyway.
We can all stop rugby now, it's just dangerous.
Facetious comments above but FFS accidents happen. It's a contact sport.

Interesting comments here about BB’s game by Mark Reason. It used to be that we talked about kicking in the first 40 i.e. not playing with the ball, as our strategy. So I can see why he kicked a lot in the first 30 minutes. The only time I had a problem was when we had a penalty advantage and used the cross kick to marked players. Just a waste.

One kick I really liked from Beaudy was after Wallabies had scored at 18-7. ABs attacking about 40 out from Wallaby line but not really going anywhere - Beaudy puts in a check/cross kick across his body to to the corner. The balls roll into the in goal with Havili chasing ensuring the Wallabies have to force it and have a goal line drop out.
ABs collect the drop out and set up a ruck. ABs then score the next phase with Akira's break and putting Jordan away.
It was a good example of pinning Wallabies back and re-setting.
I'm not sure one 50-22 has been attempted by either side across all 3 Bledisloes?

I'm glad, that's an annoying league style change I dislike more than the goal line drop out (hmm, maybe I should post this on grumpy old man thread too).
-
@kiwimurph that kick was slated by sometime during the game comments, to which I replied 'goal line drop outs are hard' sure enough, we score. I think he was actually going for the 50-22, but didn't quite bounced his way. But with the goal line drop out rule combined with 50-22, that was a great piece of controlling high percentage play, to me

@crucial its the ABs, he will get it reversed, RC rescinded and a try awarded to his record.
And if he doesn’t, JUSTICE 4 Jordie. J4J armbands and t-shirts for the next few tests.

Nothing less than a public apology from the ref will suffice

I think one of the very first kicks of the last game looked like a 50-22 attempt, but it bounced up instead of out.
It is an interesting tactical change now because if you have the ball within your 50 and 40m line the opposition wingers almost have to drop back to protect the 50-22 which in theory opens up the wide channels. I'm not sure if that is how Akira was used. As in purposely get your phase play to just within your 50 and then send it wide. Or setup phase play to go for the 50-22 which if pulled off is a huge advantage.

Exactly. The effects of that law aren't immediately obvious. The intention was always to reduce the 13 man walls of defence.

Ugh, you Cantabs are becoming Saffas.
If you are going to go that way a Barrett's Stop Getting Red Cards armbands seems to me more sensible to help ensure BB doesn't get the trifecta next week.

May be more effective on a skiddy pitch against a Sean Edwards-style rush defense?
I haven't seen the AB's really change their push-up and drift defense in ... years?
I think percentage-wise they are still happy to give up ground, rely on speed to the breakdown and technique to isolate a center/wing and then target the breakdown to look to counter-attack.

I couldnt clearly recall the Nabura one, but jeez he looks like he lined that one up!
