@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.

Probably because the law application guidelines change about every other year.

The framework came into play in 2019...

[Stargazer]

@mr-fish And the new Head contact process in March 2021.

@dice said in Moana Pasifika vs Hurricanes:

MP have been competitive in the 1st half in every game, but because they do so much defending because of discipline and setpiece issues, they don't have the energy to stay in the fight in the 2nd half.

A little more accuracy and discipline in their defence and they wouldn't make it so much easier for the opposition.

If they stopped putting themselves under pressure they could win this.

[taniwharugby]

@stargazer yes but that has been an issue with loads of rules, not just this.

[Steven Harris]

Yellow all day

Looked like a shoulder charge from Jordie there

Zero doubt. That should have been reviewed. Thought the AR was looking at it but no...

[gt12]

Same issue, take 10 minutes off.

Nope, penalty only ...

Funny how Everyone’s going on about how unfair the card was funny Goosen has failed his HIA because of the hit.

[Stargazer]

That's shocking. If Aumua gets a card, this should be one, too.

[antipodean]

Jesus Pickerill that's a clear yellow card.

[NTA]

Do the hurricanes not have to throw their lineout straight?

[Stargazer]

@mikey07 It wasn't a hit. It was an accidental head clash.

[Tim]

Now that should be a yellow.

[Mattasaurus]

Wow...

Not everyone.
That’s exactly my point, and I think @antipodean might be another.

They did get pinged for one not straight.

[Damo]

I quite like pickerill but that was bullshit.

That was yellow bordering on red. Not PK bordering on yellow.

That is a concerning non card frankly.

Pickerill demonstrates again that he’s an incompetent fluffybunny.

He is a shit ref. I call Pickerill "work experience" for that reason.
