reed with all except maybe last sentence: not sure if I follow you but not sure why immediate call for TMO can't be impartial (but this is so minor, forget it).
Onto the important point, I'd have thought a red card is to stamp out dangerous, cheating, unnecessary or evil foul play, I don't think it is any of those. Perhaps dangerous, but in my mind the jumper has to focus totally on the ball and if the tackler is going for the jumper rather than competing then the onus is on the tackler to be careful. I think this is a grey area and I wonder if/how they can police it more fairly.
Edit: I see Crucial already said something similar.I don't really agree with you here. It is also to stamp out dangerous actions, caused by poor technique whether they are deliberate or not.
The guy was kicked in the head. It wasn't deliberate but it was foreseeable. Players have stopped lifting inthe tackle because they know if they get it wrong they get a red card (even if it isn't deliberate). Players going to catch the ball should stop leading with their feet.

Jordie didn't lead with his foot, he kicked it out instinctively at the last second trying to avoid landing on his back.

Another take might’ve that he kicked his leg out to get himself closer to Koroibete so that Koroibete was drawn in to tackling him in the air.

well, based on your thinking it was also poor technique from the Wallaby: if he should only tackle him when he has landed he should be looking at the AB's feet.

Yeah definitely, but fair to say it's probably still reckless. Many high tackles wouldn't occur if the player didn't drop...
Edit : As I said at the time, it's such a Jordie thing to happen. Throw a koroibete into the mix...you'd struggle to find two more unco players.

@stargazer Owens on the red card - at 2:30 mins -

Well we haven't woken to any news about JB so either the defence is really digging in strong or the panel is struggling to justify what they want.
As said in an earlier post the system of pleading guilty even when you aren't to limit damage has created precedents in this regard when they should have been argued out properly.
You can't be acting recklessly if you are acting deliberately e.g. sticking your foot out to deter would be tacklers is reckless while an instinctive leg out to correct balance isn't.
Hopefully this leads to a clarification to the application of the law. If you allow jumping you have to allow safe landing and that means the onus is on others to keep out of the way. Simple. -

Mark my words. They barely even need to have the hearing.
Koroibete's red resulted in no suspension and now the same story for Jordie.
Trigger happy refs. The RC should be in a locked box on the sideline so they can cool down on the walk over and have a long think about getting it out.

I remember When Billy slater was on the same charge ,
Then someone with too much time on his hands made a video of him doing exactly the same thing with nobody anywhere near him ,
dangerous and deliberate are two different things
-
@kiwiinmelb Yeah there must be plenty of footage of JB doing the same thing previously, they probably just needed a montage of him doing that to show its instinctive and not reckless. He is a Giraffe after all.

That Ferald article still seems to be the only news. Must have had some inside sauce overnight and everyone else is waiting on Perth to wake up.
Yeah, it’s not official just ‘sources’
Sauces.

Slater was a grub though so not surprised people thought the worse. He was the king of sliding feet first into players diving to score tries.

I hated him for that. Jordie on the other hand had a spotless record

You can't be acting recklessly if you are acting deliberately
and yet in the eyes of the law when in charge of a motor vehicle, if you are charged with reckless driving, it is deemed that your actions were deliberate or that you knew exactly what you were doing (Careless to Dangerous to Reckless) and you will very likely also end up with your insurer declining your claim if the charge was the result of an accident
