How is that knock down not a yellow?
Glad it's not. I hate that it's a penalty let alone potential card.

@crazy-horse IMO it should be a penalty if it's obvious that it's deliberate and there was no chance whatsover that the player could catch the ball.
There should be a clear deterrent to prevent players from cynically slapping away the ball to prevent the opposition from attacking/scoring. In those cases, I don't mind a yellow.

Agree, but we are not always seeing it reffed that way unfortunately. 50/50s are being penalised.

Did Vaa’i grab the ball from behind him at that ruck?

Yup, penalty
Very much like the clean out on chiefs 8 there, totally from the side, penalty. Ref is blind

It always feels like the referees in the Moana Pasifika games let a lot of technical things slide. Perhaps unconsciously trying to even up things and not create too much of a stop-start affair but it's very noticeable that the officiating standards drop whenever MP are playing.
-
Are the Chiefs aware the game involves tackling?
