17 MOST DESERVING Rugby RED CARD | This is what rugby has come to!

[@kinlord798]

The Referee saying "there's nothing wrong" it's magic.

[@justinstephenson9360]

For me the Hogg red was the worst because it was late, straight to the chin and tbh looked very cynical

[@RugbyClanOfficial]

Unexpected hit🤦🏻‍♂️

[@paddyhenry8995]

Agreed . Late and deliberate. Didn’t think Hogg was that dirty

[@scooter0012]

Utter nonsense. Hogg jumped across his bows and left a cheap, stupid glance on the Welsh player. Hogg sadly had that trait in his game and was always liable to sanction, but yellow would have sufficed there. There was no doubt however, the Welsh player had been watching too much soccer!

[@fruitychink]

Typical Hogg Watched him for years at Glasgow and he constantly put cheap shots in and was really not in control of his temper by accounts from back room staff

[@johnpalmer4102]

I thought this was the worst in one way, because it was just so cynical and he ran on without a backward glance. Not a mistimed tackle- just an assault.

[@jeremyroberts39]

The guys who get the red just walk, and generally the guys who take the hit get up and keep playing. The greatest game in the world!

[@tinyshedcrafts3974]

These hard, brutal men immediately accept the referees decision without drama. Football players would be surrounding the ref, shouting and cursing like spoiled brats.

[@methanbreather]

also the refs explaining what happened, not accepting any bullshit. Very nice indeed.

[@patrickscheepers4061]

None of this would have been illegal in the 90s in SA. Thats why we have so many boys in wheel chairs now still

[@Ding_Bat]

Aki’s red was a bit harsh. I see the reasoning behind it, though, but a mountain coming at you with speed? You’d best be committed!

[@ofs82]

Problem is Aki's got a bit of a history of some questionable hits and clearouts in similar fashion now, he's had a fair few cards for them and also a few that haven't been carded but have been borderline. He might have got a bit unlucky on that particular occasion, but he's somebody who is less likely to get the benefit of the doubt in a judgement call as a result.

[@adrianperry8352]

“This is what rugby has come to” is an odd title for this clip. Look back at games twenty or thirty years ago, and you’ll see much worse. That famous Barbarian v All Black try would lead to two red cards these days !

[@1unsung971]

Absolutely right

[@torinsuriarachi700]

4:59 That was Alex Hodgman

[@Dj_Shaq]

4:46 #10 Pretty Sure that's Alex Hodgman, not Rob Rush.

[@RugbyClanOfficial]

My mistake🤦🏻‍♂️

[@bernieob9577]

Hogg definitely deserved red.

[@patorabe2734]

Chacun de ces cartons est mérité, ce sport est brutal, c'est un sport de combat, mais rajouter de la violence gratuite dedans nuis à tout le monde :(

[@leoddagan]

"It's a direct contect to the hid" 😄

[@vulture3874]

England supporter; I'm not seeing anything wrong with the Aki challenge.

[@Anonuser1895]

I came to the comments section to say the same thing!!

[@jamiewatson5321]

Number 8: it was not his fault he tried to block the kick

[@oliverjenner9251]

for sure, not really much he could do once he had jumped to stop it. he almost landed on his head as it was, should have been a yellow but nothing more

[@philipmccarthy6175]

Apart from the Aki one , all the others were merited due to stupidity or recklessness.

[@Alex-xk7my]

Stuart Hogg absolute grub

[@Yeater-rd9vp]

Wam that’s a good one by the second clip

[@equinoxproject2284]

That Hogg shoulder looks like Burfict on Antonio Brown.

[@mellymarriott6637]

These moments are what separates Rugby from soccer! The rugby player gets a red card, accepts the red card and walks off! The soccer player get a red card and starts shouting and crying into the refs face.

[@iffracem]

0:42 Jordan actually looks down, directly at where he's putting his boot.. deliberate AF, then acts all petulant and hard done by when he gets a well deserved red. Thankfully this sort of play is still fairly rare, but its' especially annoying when good players, who don't need to deliberately foul, resort to this crap.

[@paulthomson2288]

nonsense. It was impossible for Barrett to see the wallaby player unless like superman he can see with xray vision. He caught the ball near his face and as he was landing there was no deliberate push or kicking motion. it was an unfortunate accident that the referee's got terribly wrong. It also didn't stop the wallaby from pushing barrett while in mid air and causing him to fall awkward ly. The reaction was to prevent a red card in the opposite direction

[@Christian_1980]

​@@paulthomson2288blah blah blah. You can't use your foot like that. No one else does that. Period. Bloody toxic kiwis always whining when they get caught out.

[@oliverjenner9251]

i dont think it was deliberate, but it was incredibly stupid. deserved a yellow for sure but red was harsh

[@TheCaptain001]

@@oliverjenner9251agreed. He didn’t deserve a red for that. Wallaby player just wanted an Oscar nomination. He shouldn’t have led with his foot - granted - but a yellow and 10 minutes to think about changing his technique is all the punishment that red deserved.

[@oliverjenner9251]

@@TheCaptain001 yea, this is where we need cards between yellow and red. Like a 20 minute red they did in super rugby where the team can sub off the player after his time is up. Punish the player but not handicap a team for a single dumb mistake.

[@TheCaptain001]

I won’t for a second condone ‘unsportsmanlike’ play like these are, but I have seen some well worse reds than this bunch. Regardless…there isn’t a huge amount of difference between a fair ‘counter ruck’ and a cynical neck breaker. A few inches off and it becomes a red rather than a turn over! It’s tough for the guys in the ruck…but above all; no guy should receive a clean shoulder to the head when committed to a ruck. Send the guy off for the season; not just the game. You could kill a brother. Not on.

[@lcoconstruction2660]

Aki was definitely not a red, in real time things happen sometimes!

[@prt6000]

Liam Williams (#3) was not even yellow carded. It was a penalty try that costed Wales the win but no card at all

[@BloodSport4All]

Liam "Cheap Shot" Williams. You could do a whole video on him

[@buzz2b2000]

Funny you could have done several videos on Owen Farrell and Mike Brown.

[@BloodSport4All]

@@buzz2b2000 na not like that petulant child Williams

[@smthB4]

Liam Williams was YC I think.

[@mowerman60]

Brilliant tackle by Sanjay

[@tylerfoyle8096]

What about flowers red card in St helen vs wigan for the fight

[@japersjolly8763]

That's not rugby 🤣

[@wilsonfreemantle9673]

Manu tuilagi didn't have time to change position as the Wales player was falling I'd say yellow for that one

[@jamescrydeman540]

When it was an amateur game the prize was the game and your place in it, now it is professional the commercial aspect constrains the manner in which the “game” proceeds in a manner that will see too great a loss of audience support for it to continue.

[@douglasboyd6235]

#3 was not actually ever given as a Red Card. It was a Yellow Card and Penalty Try

[@scottiramage317]

The second one is an atrocious decision

[@colin5944]

Have a word it's a clear red man is in the air land dangerously... simple

[@mistertom2385]

the #15 Bundee Aki red card will forever mystify me. I was screaming at my television when that happened live, and I'm an Englishman!!

[@Karma-qt4ji]

Not as strange as the Henry Slade on Kurt Lee Arendse last year. I was actually quite proud of how many of us SAFFA's called bullshit on that one and it was correctly overturned after the game.

[@craigsheppard2514]

Jordie Barrett red card was overturned. I was at that game and even the Aussie fans I spoke to were confused how it was red

[@vincentharling9548]

Some are accidental and others drliberate criminal assaults

[@againstthegrain147]

The first was not a red

[@johnbradshaw7525]

It was a boot in the face. How can that not be a red card offence?

[@nepiahemopo1702]

To me Caleb Clark attempted to block a kick while the player basically ran into him. 😢😮

[@Richardtv1968]

For me 15 is a clear yellow!

[@OscarOSullivan]

Number 9 symbolises everything wrong with Eddie Jone’s England.

[@iffracem]

Not a fan of Jones.. but that's pure Tuilangi, all the brothers have always been like that

[@ynotnilknarf39]

He was aiming to tackle midriff but in the split second before impact the ball carrier drops like two feet. you're expecting all that kinetic energy to just shift somehow in 1/4 of a second?

[@ofs82]

@@ynotnilknarf39 If he was trying to wrap or make a legal hit, the ball carrier dropping like that might have been seen as mitigation and he might have been able to escape with a yellow (although it was in the last 10 minutes of the game so the colour of the card would have been inconsequential in the moment), but Manu was just throwing an uncontrolled hit there, so when he made contact with the head I thought potential red card immediately when I saw it live. Some of the commentary around it was definitely influenced by North being on the receiving end, a player who has a well-known concussion history, but it's a no-arms tackle where he comes from distance with force, so there's no way it wasn't a dubious hit regardless.

[@ynotnilknarf39]

@@ofs82 Define "uncontrolled" the wrpping of the arms is meaningless in this instance, it doesn't effect the outcome in the slightest. In fact, has wrapping of the arms reduced head injuries for tacklers and the ball carrier in union, there's no evidence of such Is there contact with the head, yes, is it a card yes, should that be a red, under the current laws of the game, it was. However, the law makers are failing to take into account how players are running and have physical mass plus speed so have a large amount of kinetic energy (this is the absolute nature of full contact rugby of either code). this cannot just be changed in an instant when the body position of the player drops unexpectedly (which was the case, Tuilagi cannot know this would occur) So are the law makers are really saying would be tacklers should be able to turn their bodies 'tron like' after reacting in a time less than that of a sprinter hearing the gun in a 100metre race and then work out the position of the player the wish to tackle when they reach them despite the unfolding act not having occured or unfolded fully yet? Whilst abolutely we want player protections, there has to be some latitude with what is a full contact sport played at speed and huge varying factors invlved. Otherwise, play touch

Funny how the all black commentators never say anything bad when it's there players committing the foul oh it was definitely a yellow but red?lmao typical all blacks commentators nd team pack of cheats go the Springboks
