Well that was straight up dumb by Laumape.

[Yeetyaah]

Lucky to not be red

Luck it's only a yellow

Very

[Gunner]

How is that only yellow?

Forearm directly to the neck?

Clear red these days isn’t it?

[gt12]

I’m really surprised he didn’t get red for that.

[taniwharugby]

@gt12 may be a citing?

[Tim]

Definitely a card. Lucky for him they didn't show another angle. Should have been a yellow for the Neck roll though.

[Canes4life]

Julian and Ngani can do us a favour and jump on a plane. Too thick.

[gt12]

They got both of those wrong - Havili prob deserved yellow and that deserves red

[LABCAT]

But Havilli is all good to actually strangle Barrett, makes no sense.

[Mackerzzzz]

Every hurricanes game there seems to be a card

Poor discipline time and time again

[Tim]

@gunner Couldn't see the impact point clearly on that angle? Is it first contact to the head for a red?

Somebody post that flowchart.

[voodoo]

Don't disagree that it's lucky to be yellow in the context of current rulings, but I also think it SHOULD be only yellow. There was no intent to hurt (like a big punch), no way to inflict real harm if it went slightly askew (like a tip tackle or neck roll)

It was a dickhead move, and a yellow is right.

[Crucial]

How did they decide that slid up from the chest when they watched the same replay as us?
Cop out. I agree with Ardie though that they should have YCd the neck roll.
Just should have RCd that. Deliberate forearm to the throat of a prone player.

[African Monkey]

That was just dumb by Laumape and yes, it deserved red.

[Tim]

Laumape ran a nice line with good acceleration for his try. A couple of nice short passes before it. Then he does two dumb things to end the half.

Throat / neck is vulnerable area.

Scott Barrett is great at placing pressure on at tackle ball situation.

They are incredibly inaccurate. When you look at the Saders, that’s the difference, its a surprise when someone doesn’t do their job. With the Canes (and Chiefs) its the opposite.

I’m convinced that the Saders aren’t as good as the other NZ teams allow them to be as they consistently give them opportunities (the Saders are very good though, that’s not my point)
