It's just odd as we have had these rules for a number of years now and I haven't really seen any reduction. If anything I have come to expect yellows every game.

They changed the framework 2 years back and now it's a focus

But every game seems to have different rulings.

Interpretations 😉

That's why they call them Laws of Rugby not Rules of Rugby

Yes but you cant have interpretations that big like that. 99% of decent refs would hardy call that a penalty

High tackle by Mr Hollywood.

Hooper pressuring the ref brilliantly there

Is it a Hollywood if you get a shoulder to the jaw with force?

[Stargazer]

There's no way that should even be a penalty.

[chimoaus]

Credit to Wallabies, ruck work has been pretty good.

It is if you grab your forehead instead of your jaw

@nta I've never seen a judge on the field, so I feel like they're just trying excuse less than consistent applications of the law

Walk out of it fine a 10 seconds later fall over holding your eyes?... I'd say yes

Not even in slow mo

Sorry but how was that not Aussie ball after the maul?

From a kick.

[chimoaus]

If we had the 20 minute rule we would be back to 15 each around now which seems fair.

Which would be sanity.

@canes4life Marika still could’ve gone around the legs

Exactly he made no attempt to go low in the tackle

My mistake.

I often confuse my nose for my jaw

[KiwiMurph]

Wallabies would have been better off doing a drop goal there.
