^^^For me the letter of the new rule book can't be policed correctly when players on the pitch have milliseconds to wrap & lower their bodies for impact, it's inconsistent by the referee and TMO at every match, and don't talk to me about the TOP14 games which's all over the place.
because he scored it and would of stayed in the field of play but for the pathetic high tackle that pushed him out....
Wondered when you would show up. I watched it today and can see why it was given. But it wasn’t clear in the stadium at all. And imho it’s harsh as blondie was already diving down low. Applying the rules as they are the ref was correct. I personally think the rules have gone too far with no malice or real danger shown here. Does not make a jot of difference of course. England were far, far superior. Wales are in the troughs of a huge slump, possibly terminal.
