If Willemse was going downwards when the Approaching players went down there would be mitigation.

I was just curious to see if we would protect our own like England protects Farrell. Distorting the law to suite our ends. Willemse unfortunately is the example.

So Farrell should be let off

An exocet shoulder into a vulnerable opponent on the floor should be a red regardless of it missing the head by a few inches. Head contact should determine the length of ban.

Sards wrote: Wed Aug 30, 2023 6:23 pm A head contact can happen at any time to any team. Sides are so well prepared for this tournament that doing stupid shit like Barrett did shouldn't happen at all. It should mostly be accidental. And that's the tragedy. Someone can do malicious and premeditated shit like Barrett with the intention to do harm and get off.

The ref and the officials were rather one sided

The Pen Try was a disgrace and all the angles now show it was handled by the SA player.
Plain and obvious at the time ffs
