@stargazer doesn't matter. You can't make contact with the head making a tackle. Even with your own.
Still, number of cards is a blight.
Goosen dipped, so did Aumua to make the tackle. If that was a red card it would have been time to give up on rugby and go back to watching the Aussie Warriors.

@steven-harris He’s playing like crap also really rusty bring on Roigaard.

I disagree with that card. He tried to wrap. It was an accidental head clash.
Players have to know now that's how they ref it - if you are going to fly in like that 100mph that's the risk.
Agree

Totally agree

@kiwimurph apparently it’s pretty windy but still no excuses.

How gutsy is this MP team ..?..playing only there 3rd ever game , no ball , no field position , heavly penalised , 2 yellow cards …Canes 80% possession plus ..7 all incredible …this is shit you cant coach ..as someone said imagine if they had a scrum ..?
-
MP have their heads up now, they are going to be tough to put away.
Hopefully Roigard comes on and shows a calmer head, Perenara has been a disaster.

They should have had more yellow cards tbh.

@nepia yeah that's why it was mitigated down.
Yet some on this thread are calling for a red card.

I don't think I've seen this many big hits in a Super game and it's just the 1st half.
Do you remember some of the Blues v Canes games back in the day (when the Canes weren't complete villains ). They'd score a crazy amount of points but there'd be huge hits going too.

@winger they have only been a pro franchise since 1996..lol

So should have the Canes.

Definitely rusty after two weeks off that’s for sure. They started so well aswell which is frustrating.

@canes4life canes should just play smarter and they'd be well ahead.
As to the head clash card, the rules around that are poor, players adapting to these poor rules that have been about for ages is poor.
