<p>I agree with pretty much everything you have said but it seems the referees have been instructed to ref in this way given Zas got a red card and was banned on top of it.</p>

<p>Ah, damn. The AB back 3 debate has just become boring! Savea 11, Smith 15, Naholo 14. Not even a debate.</p>

<p>drive is not what Nagati did... he quite clearly lifted</p>

<p>despite the differing views on the tackle/lift, Ngatai's fate for the next 2-4 weeks is now in the hands of the wonderfully consistent SANZAR judiciary! </p>

<p>which i think we can all agree is a farking farce, considering what Pocock got for filth vs these aerial issues</p>

<p>I'd be looking for the same lawyer that Messam had last year if I was Ngatai.</p>

<p>FFS, Dixon jumped into him, there was nothing he could do at that point.</p>

Not unless the citing officer decides it should have been a RC. <br>
Yellows don't go to the judiciary.

Well at least when the Chiefs lose this all you blokes can spend the week bitching about the referee.<br><br>

<p>FFS if he was "driving" rather than lifting it would have been a bloody good hit. But he was lifting and the rest is history</p>

<p>I'd be surprised if it doesnt got there, given the ARse was pushing for a RC...be nice if Ngatai doesnt have to have that lottery ticket</p>

<p>What place does a hypothetical scenario have in an incident which was definately penalisable and potentially a red card?</p>

Would be an even bigger farce if that's the case. There is clear criteria that says RC if player lands on head/ neck which Dixon didn't do.
