So if Argentina hadn't scored, surely it's PT and YC? So why does that cancel out the YC?
Jaco said penalty only for the tackle.

Take away that tackler and it's a walk in...

Hodge is podge.
Hodge is the player we wish Bridge could be.

Yeah but the try was awarded. The disparity you're pointing at I get, but that's a vagary of the law. You'd hate to see everyone YC just because they were last in defence and gave a potential penalty away while still being scored against.

Was a discussion point among refs here for these situations where it is close to the line - how do you stop their forward momentum without going over the shoulder?

@antipodean who the fuck do you think you are. I would love to see every wallaby carded.

Wallaby bench pretty average tonight.
Not helped by Petaia breaking. Again.

Hooper is a cracking player but I wonder if he'd come up through the NZ system if he'd have ended up as an international 12 or 13.
We made a scrumhalf a fullback/ five-eighth...

I don't really like the reasoning that because I can't stop a player by legal means then I can turn to illegal means. So weak scrums should be allowed to collapse? Defending teams can pull down mauls? Etc

Can see why Arnold & Skelton are coming back into the fold , Matt Philip just does get any gain line, honest footballer but nothing more.
Wallabies will be disappointed they did not completely shut the Pumas out. -

Not saying that at all.
If a player is driving low and hard that you're going to end up with a seatbelt situation in a lot of cases. Happens a lot around the field on the pick n go but, like a lot of things, isn't analysed as much as a TMO review in pro games.
At amateur level i.e. the refs I'm talking about, it is mostly going to go unpenalised
