[QUOTE="ABs2011, post: 768733, member: 57663"] Conrad took a head knock in the first half, they brought him off so as not to take any risks. That's what they have said post match anyway. Nothing serious, but it seems to be the trend with the ABs. If a starter is not 100% and they have a replacement ready to go they get pulled. I think tis both out of concern for the injured play, but perhaps more so about making sure the guys on the filed are operating as close to 100% as they can manage! Yup definately saw it (when I watched the match on replay) posted about it earlier but until now it looks like no-one else has seen it. It was pretty full on, lucky he only clipped him, and extremely lucky the TMO didnt pick it up otherwise it whould have at least been a yellow for repeat infringements. Yup, for me Pocock definately gets McCaw, but its not a stop on the head. McCaw has hold of his boot at the base of a ruck (and the ball ahas long since gone). Pocock kinda shrugs him off, but in doing so looks to lash out a touch (probably accidentally) but definately contacts McCaws head with his boot. NZHerald had the video up last time I checked.
