Get on with the scrum, FFS.

This again shows that cards ruin games. Just use a report system and replace the offending player.
I broadly agree and have called for that exact system (other than for acts of filth), but we can't blame the refs for applying the laws and guidelines as they've been instructed to do. This is the fault of the players and administrators.
Marshall opening his gob and needlessly giving us more evidence he's an imbecile doesn't change this. What his commentary does is actually breed contempt for the referee. His employers should be ashamed and censured by NZR.

Tap and go guys.
Kick it out and they get 2 players back into the game.
Of course we don't even find touch. And it works out anyway.
I would have gone for scrum, almost all the force team had to be in the scrum!

@antipodean Yep totally agree, it's clear the players can't change overnight and highly unlikely anytime soon otherwise they would have already.
Nearly every game now has a card and it's ridiculous they have not found a better solution. -

No it's not, but hey you go ahead. While we're at it, why are women voting?
Name one example of a player red carded for a head clash before 2018.

I'm not sure but I think if they went for a scrum the YC guy would have come back on, as well as the guy who also went off because of the uncontested scrums.
Tap and go was the way to go. 15 against 12.

Name one example of a woman voting before women began voting.

I like Marshall, but gotta agree where you're coming from. Can't be hard for him to criticise a red/yellow card and explain the Ref is applying the guidelines and doesn't have much choice.

@Bones because all these cards are so good for the game aye. It’s getting ridiculous.
