Not immediately clear what the mitigation could be there.

Fuckin' Kiwis are going to bottle this and we're going to have to put up with the Saffas crowing that they're world champions for another four years :thumbdown:

That’s their game plan.

I saw another trying to drop in a static grip tackle to get it around his neck, and then wailing to Barnes.

NZ just not providing any real control on their game at key points.

That doesn't mean much, just that he's eligible for mitigation if there's any to be found.

It is so much less than Kriel's hit on Jack Dempsey that he wasn't even penalised for...

"You'd think due to the magnitude of the game there might be some leniency"

What the actual fuck are you talking about Warburton? It shouldn't matter whether it's a B team run out against a tier 2 nation in the summer or a world cup final the laws should be applied the same.

They probably won't need to bring Bongi back on crutches to throw a crucial lineout on 79 mins now

I think that red is the right call.

But I wouldn't call it game over just yet.

It is the All Blacks afterall.

So far even last nights game was better than this. Some good tackling under pressure though.

I’m hoping Fozzie trips over his fat arse on the way to the changing rooms so he can’t talk to them.
