    I'm glad it's only a yellow, but if he was consistent with previous refereeing decisions, it should have been a red. It will be interesting to see whether there will be a citing.

    What was the mitigating factor? No force?

    Ducking, plus knockout of the RWC.

    Yup if the Ireland game is anything to go by they've upped the threshold for cards for the knockout stages

    What's mitigating? That's a red. Bottled it by the ref

    Super lucky that’s not red

    Correct call.

    Legitimate attempt at a tackle. Poor technique.

    Previously, direct force to the head has been red. They have changed for the knockouts. Lucky.

    Eh? Collapsed maul. Should’ve been a penalty to the French.

    Hard to claim when you're going backwards.

    Easy to call given Wyn Jones was offside and not coming through the middle.

    I'd have to watch it again, but my recall was that he was bound and one of the French players (no 5) left the maul, giving him the opportunity to grasp the ball.

    Most of the Red Cards have been for shoulder charges which connect with the head, not high tackles. Doubt very much we will see a citing.

    Fickou is my MOTM so far. Penaud is also class. Great match with both sides having their moments.

    Best French team in ages. Playing so much faster. More skill.

    Great that Basterau isn't killing their backline anymore.

    It's still direct contact with the head.

    I'll post the framework later and then we can argue about it properly.

    Yellow card hurting Wales. They look slow in comparison too. Slow of thought and execution.
