    How has someone not had a word to Clarke about cutting that shit out?

    Because he gets away with it!

    In a proper professional set up in wouldn't matter.

    Jumped way too early. No chance of catching that ball. Direct contact with the head. Should be red.

    What's that? Clarke taking out another player? I find that very hard to believe....

    The other guy tipped him in the air, another red too 😉

    Maybe people will take notice now. Second obvious incident this year, 3rd dangerous one I can think of. Maybe it won't get excused as just a little bit clumsy and innocent now...

    The worst part is these players look bemused.

    I hope the coaches rip him for it.

    Great argument for a twenty minute red

    @stargazer to be fair most jump attempts for a charge down are never a realistic shot at getting it.

    @taniwharugby Yeah, but most players don't pull up their knees for a charge down.

    That Irish guy got done for a similar thing a few years ago, jumping into a kicker.

    Really impressive from Timoci.

    He's a real nugget at the breakdown

    I don’t think he came from behind the last feet. Has that law been taken out?

    Good defense.

    MP might have the best ball carrying forward pack. They get good go forward.

    I'm a fairly casual observer of super rugby these days, never been a huge fan of the blues, but definitely not a fan of that decision.

    Disclaimer: I also don't know the finer nuances of the new red card rules, so I'm more than happy to be told my opinion is stupid.

    Surely Clark is the more vulnerable player in the air, and the ref using the justification that "he was reckless and mistimed it because he moved from the chargedown action to trying to protect himself mid air". I'd have thought that when he realised there was going to be a collision, it's natural reflex to protect oneself and that's not hugely indicative of anything more than a guy not wanting to land on his head.

    Surely at some point in contact sport, you have to accept that unfortunate contact does happen. Much like a head clash. Penalty at best and move on.
