[QUOTE="nickdnz, post: 758843, member: 38640"] Not that I care either way - but seeing the reaction McCaw got for his trip (some suggesting it should have been a red card), I find the Pocock reaction pretty telling. That said - when you hold a players leg in contact to stop him from playing - you frankly deservedly run the risk of getting a knee. I've had the same thing where a player tried to tackle me long after I offloaded the ball - and I landed a knee on him as I went to ground - cause why should I avoid a guy infringing me? Again though if Tuilagi can get large ban for running over the top of the guy - I don't see how World Rugby can avoid it. It will likely be one match against Scotland though - so meh. Probably won't hurt Australia in the least. [/QUOTE]
