If this Georgian ref gets a knockout game.... fuck me dead.....
Why?
Aside from one dubious YC I thought he had a great game
A couple of decisions aside, I felt he communicated very well, followed through with the warnings he gave and pretty much had zero tolerance for infringement, but without any detriment to the game being played.
This is, in principle, what we’ve all been crying out for and now he gets shit for dishing out too many cards?
Bizarre.

Have to be a 3 match minimum with his history, surely?
If it’s not, then World Rugby do not give a fuck about player welfare and we can forget all the changes to the contact area
Yeah but… Zander Fagerson. Much more dangerous than what Farrell did. Had previous sanction for exactly the same thing and yet…?

Its going to be very interesting to see how that "hit" is minimised to the minimal sentence they can get away with - considering his record and a suspension earlier this year , and attending "tackle school" this grub should be gone for a minimum of 6 weeks

I only watched until half time because it was pretty fucken dire, but I was extremely impressed by the ref and had meant to find out who it was.
Now the players make the game a shit show and we're blaming the ref again are we?

Considering all the factors that are taken into account, it will probably be four weeks, if he's "unlucky" five. That's assuming he apologised at the earliest time possible and an early guilty plea.

@Stargazer haha apologising, that like when my mum made me apologise to my brother after he taunted me and I smacked him...I didn't mean it, but did it to keep the lawmaker happy...
-
@taniwharugby Yeah, there's nothing genuine about it, but that's how it works.

Can you replace someone in your squad for suspension or is injury the only way out?

It can also be for "personal reasons".

I am pretty sure you can

@Machpants well you can't in a game...

One for the team
I went back
I was wrong, the ref was right
Overextended, forearms on the floor momentarily
Penalty, and in context a deserved YC

He didn't communicate that well and the penalty when Wales had an advantage was weird, but apart from that the ref was pretty good overall. Particularly as he's stlll young and relatively inexperienced.
