Since when did a jumper put his foot our directly in front when he's coming down? Silly from Jordie in the first place.
You ever jumped high?
It’s a pretty natural reaction when you jump high.

A Highlanders player got done for something similar against the Tahs a few years ago.
It's a classic Billy Slater move.
You can talk about his mid air balance or whatever but he stuck his foot out at head height and that's that.
I'm arguing that the rule is dumb. Should he have just landed on his arse?

He was tackled in the air and then the Wallaby rolled around like he'd been shot. Obviously their video reviews after playing France have been good.

That is harsh.
There was one similar a while back in super Rugby but that one was deliberate.

Red card there, another Barrett
Shouldn't be - 100% accident. Never looks at the chaser, leg goes out as a natural balance outcome.
Crazy decision.
A red card there surely implies the ref thinks he blatantly and intentionally kicked his opponent in the face.
As opposed to it's an accident.
Deliberation isn’t required for head contact just clumsiness.
Not saying I agree with call just that it doesn’t need to be blatant and intentional -

If he didn't want to get carded, then I guess yes.
