😮ay these calls...how was that a red card!?!

[@The_Random_Youtubers]

No Mitigation High Degree of Danger Head on Head Contact Stood Upright in Contact No Attempt to Bend Knees Right Foot Off Ground (Doesn't really matter) Moderate Speed I believe it should've been yellow card, off-field review, but i don't know if they do that here, so a call had to be made. And we have to stay consistent with new guidelines, head contact is a no. So there has to be consistency. But I believe in another world that is a yellow.

[@conorcolquhoun7930]

​@@The_Random_KZbinrsTo be honest, it didn't even look like there was contact with the head from the replay shown.... They would've needed other angles to confirm that contact with the head was actually made.

[@Deoney2]

She didn't bend at her hips, her body was upright position. she closed her eyes and most of the force was absorb at head contact, just poor tackling technique.Only a yellow if there is mitigation.

@@DarkMoonWayfarer Potentially dangerous is still a red in the men's divisions. only low level danger is a yellow. World Rugby is actively trying to reduce long term effects of head trauma. Like a recent case is Pat Lambi.

Why are they not using the fast wings in attack. 10 needs more creativity. The forward pack not very physical, easily getting dominated at the break down. The Ladies need to do better.

Italian players are centrally contracted professionals. Apart from a couple of players, who play in the English PremXV league, the Saffa's are amateurs who train and play in their spare time. South African Rugby need to do better and fund them.
