TRC2021 - Wallabies v Boks @ Suncorp 18/09

[Derpus]

Sanity prevails jesus christ.

 

[KOB1987]

Ok. Marginally bette

 

[SteveWA]

You have to say Rassie’s video worked

 

[Wilson]

Lucky there for Swinton, didn't deserve a red, but he nearly got it anyway

 

[Joe King]

My goodness. Almost gave an incorrect red card. TMO felt guilty.

 

[Drew]

Vermulin stayed down for the card

 

[dru]

Well thank fuck for that. Yellow is touch but red would be nuts.

 

[Teh Other Dave]

Argh. Yes he should have gone lower, but red?

 

[Wilson]

Not sure we can run both Swinton and Fainga'a in the same side, so much card risk in their general play

 

[KOB1987]

Well we said it last week... Swinton needs to address his tackling technique, its that simple... We can whinge about the rules and interpretations but they rules aren't changing so he needs to learn to tackle within the rules

I don’t disagree but he was actually backing out and Vermeulen led in with his shoulder. if they’re serious they need to look at the attacking players as well. The only time I can recall they have was Kerevi in the RWC

 

[Up the Guts]

All this talk about width, yet to actually create a linebreak.

 

[Tomikin]

Swinton has a rep now needs to tackle lower till it's gone great steal FF (Folau Fainga'a)... Pity the offside

Agree with you and I don't agree with the card. BUT the bloke must adjust his technique to remove the risk.

Two years ago I got the shits and read the law. Aside from dangerous palm-offs, the player with the ball can run as they choose. The onus is on the tackler to get it right.

 

[Derpus]

Fuck Hodge sucks - cant believe i called for him to come in.

 

[dru]

What are you driveling about?

 

[Tomikin]

Hodge has got no where near any of the high balls so far and also let one go to touch... Missing Banks already

 

[Up the Guts]

This is why Banks started

 

[Drew]

And another tight five goes down before a scrum

 

[Derpus]

Petaia would be a better shout under the high ball right?
