Wallabies v Ireland #1 - Brisvegas
-
Fucking really? Penalised for tackling a dummy runner? That's ridiculous.
-
They can't overturn for that surely? That is pathetic
-
Common sense has left the building.
-
Glad it’s an SA ref making that call.

I don't get why Pocock always gets rag dolled. He's built like a tank and lower to the ground. Is he really slow?
It is weird. You'd expect him to be like Nonu but he ain't.
-
Gee I hope Ireland win after that spat by Phil Kearns.

Yeah or Mealamu. A nugget wrecking ball. He's bigger than Hooper, but Hooper runs km more than him.

Haha Aussie comms going full retard. Pretty simple, you can't tackle a guy who doesn't, and never did, have the ball. I don't give a shit if you thought he was going to get it. The fact he held him down afterwards just reinforces it.
If tackling a dummy runner is now illegal than the game will be littered with penalties. Basically every backline move will result in one.

Is a neck roll not a YC? Thought they were clamping down on them.

TMO said he let go so it was penalty only.

Nah what Coleman did doesn’t happen that often. He picked the wrong man and then drove him into the ground and held him down. It was a simple cut out ball from Ireland that was completely misread. Poor play.

Good tackle by Henshaw to stop that initial attack. Pressure building though.

Too much gym strength not enough functional strength maybe?

Ireland tiring more. Some players sucking hard.

Tackling a player without the ball has always been illegal.

Great scrum by Australia at critical moment. Easy three.
