[@billymack333]

@@NB-fb8pw Rugby is an extremely physical game. People get hurt in pretty much every sport. We have a word for those who purposely like to inflict injury with illegal play, we call them Grubs. There is no place for them in rugby, if they want to fight then go fight professionally, but they won’t because they’re grubs who like to take their shot when the other player is defenceless. Again rugby is tough, accidents happen. It’s a sport with rules that don’t include cheap shots. There have been a lot of rule changes over recent years with sole intention of protecting players from serious injury. For the most part it’s working.

[@Justiceforpets]

O’Driscoll’s shoulder injury was 18 yrs ago and managed in accordance with the rugby guidelines of the time. The incident itself was never attributed to intentional or malicious play, as to accuse either or both tacklers involved, neglects to acknowledge both experienced players with equally unblemished behaviour, both on and off the paddock. Firstly - Two players were clearing the ruck, (neither guilty of predicting each others movements) consequently their independent actions created a momentum, resulting in the dangerous effect and result. It’s completely relevant to appreciate the character history of both Kevin and Tana prior to as well as since then, in terms of appraising the incident. Next - The NZ public do not tolerate poor sportsmanship, thuggery or lack of manners either off the paddock. Every All Black knows the standards they have to keep, before they pull on the Black Jersey.

Someone help me out on some of these red cards. Cause it looks like, that if someone jumps as high as they can, and you decide to tackle them, you get a red card, because they could fall on their necks? But how would you know if someone is going to jump high? Isn't that their own choice? Like, shouldn't the person that jumps high, get a warning or a card? Because jumping with your knees at face height, is way more sketch than taking someone down in mid air, imo'. (04:23 for example)

[@DAILARNER]

Your example (04:23) - you are allowed to compete for the ball in the air (that is when both players jump to catch the ball), you are not allowed to stay on the ground and hit the player who is jumping for the ball. Jumping for the ball is a useful skill because it allows the team to get to the ball early and secure possession. It is foul play if you prevent that from happening illegally and put the jumping player in danger
