[QUOTE="austingtir, post: 719418, member: 54150"] What a load of crap he barely even touched the guy. A tickle up is about all it was because the saders player was holding onto the ball! Im not justifying just saying what is fact. Anyway I have watched all the cards again and heres my opinion on them and I dont give a rats what anyone else on here thinks or what the current rules actually are. The main issue I have with these tackle yellows is there is only one infringement which is the lack of arms wrapping the player. This to me is a dubious yellow offence and imo it should require another offence to make it a certain yellow like a late charge, repeated offences by same player or trying to take someones head off aswell. This should constitute dangerous play and be a yellow or red depending on severity. The first yellow. No arms that all there was to it. By the rules this is a yellow and probably fair enough. This is probably the only one I semi agree with. I just think the game is going soft thats all. The second yellow. No arms pretty much all there was to it it might of been riding high aswell but it was just a bump off tackle and not a huge collision really no harm done. This imo is just a penalty and a player warning. Nadolo Kicking the ball away was an absolute nothing and had no affect on play whatsoever. The ref just needed to put his whistle away and give Nodolo a warning. The Red card should of been a reversed penalty to the Crusaders nothing much in it even if the bleeding hearts on here think its the end of the world. Also notice how the ball came spilling out instantly when the knee was applied.... Just give more reason to bring back rucking imo. Also before the second yellow the refs missed another late and no arms-ish tackle on the sharks winger. I wonder if this contributed to them calling the second one up or if they even noticed it.... I just felt like the Crusaders were well up for this and intent on putting in stinging hits with the Sharks players continuing to basically just wander into these hits they were getting whats coming to them really. Let the nashing of teeth begin... [/QUOTE]
