Hooper had a point. Yes, it was late, so YC is fine. But how was it dangerous - i.e. different to any other cleanout?

It’s a yellow card, and Tupou shouldn’t play another game this RC unless necessary............

The whistle had blown......... That was just an idiotic cheap shot.

Laughable. Wasnt high and the ref blows his whistle barely before he hits him. Cant just stop dead.

Its shades after the whistle and hes hit him in the chest. "Clearly dangerous" is absolute nonsense

Maybe just after the whistle but we had the ball wraped up getting the ball and he decided to try and hit someone.. clearly fucken stupid

Dangerous by virtue of being late?

No, Williams said dangerous because contact with shoulder to chest. Which makes no sense, since he used arms to cleanout.
It was late, so a YC is fair enough I guess. It was definitely stupid. I don't think it was dangerous, as it would not have warranted a look if it was in general play.
