Yeah it looked pretty bad. He's landed on his neck there. But after the first test I can see why the referee would be reticent to give another red card in this series. Also what the TMO said guided him to yellow.
Yeah there's a big quarter coming up for us. We need to take control back early in the second half. We're not very good at chasing a game so we need to get back ahead and try to pull away if we're going to win.
We tend to get loose when we're more than one score behind and give soft turnover/intercept tries as we attempt to force the play.
It's a good game so far. We should have put away that clean break. Marshall and Olding are doing really well in midfield but we have to make the most of their line breaks.
Worry for us there. Been on top but SA land the long range penalty. Nothing for us. SA will have another purple patch and they'll score. So we've probably looking at needing at least two more tries.
