Penalty against Adams

Be consistent

around the head. yellow card no?

Wasn't earlier. So no

Hodge got suspended for that...

Totally different - shoulder to head

it was an arm to the head, arm/shoulder whats the diff?

[Victor Meldrew]

Adams was lucky there.

Really feel for the players on this - so much inconsistency from game to game.

[Siam]

That was a red card 3 hours ago

[Gunner]

If they’re really going to clamp down on ALL contact to the head they’ll need to review every single ruck.

It really has become pathetic.

[No Quarter]

I walked back into the room during the replays and was trying to figure out who was being penalised- the Wallaby for leading with the forearm or the Welsh player for tackling him highish

[westcoastie]

Poite in his communications with the TMO, actually states the Australian was leading with his head. fucking please...

Hope we don't get Poite in a semi.

At least we won't get Ben Skeen the TMO...

[Gunner]

Wales need some ball.

[ACT Crusader]

If Wales lose from here....

[westcoastie]

Be interesting if Australia can get a bit more accurate - and up the pace

[African Monkey]

@Siam I'm still in shock over that.

[gt12]

Thought Hooper unlucky there.

But fuck em.

[Victor Meldrew]

@westcoastie

It was Poite who gave that ridiculous second YC against Bismark Du Plessis for a "late" tackle against Carter a few years back.

[Victor Meldrew]

Toomua's made a big difference

[westcoastie]

card against the welsh guy for high shot on welsh guy ... no?

[jegga]

Maybe the humidity affects the refs too ? Just a thought

[Kirwan]

Game of two halves, Oz are putting it up them

Poite is just shit.

[JC]

Wales exposing the downside of rushing up in a line. When the Wob players are through they make clear metres.

[Gunner]

Wales won’t win this if Aussie keep dominating possession like they are now.
Wales haven’t touched it, or been out of their own end since they kicked that penalty early in the half.

[Machpants]

What was that penalty for?
