[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 614614, member: 48703"] He wasn't injured and perfectly safe. Seb Jewell dropped down or put down on his head either. It was a fair tackle. Unfortunate rugby has got so soft with big hits. Brian "Chiropractor" Lima was a well liked by rugby fans in his day now he would be regarded exactly like Hala'ufia. It's the Pacific Islanders who bare the brunt of these soft tackles rules as seen recently with Fiji in Italy and that joke yellow card in the Wales Tonga game. Sadly for them, they don't seem able to adapt to the soft rules and with their reputation are getting harsher and harsher sin bins. Hala'ufia isn't on a level of Bakkies Botha in my opinion. As Olyy says, big hits are not the same as eye gouging or headbutting someone from behind. [/QUOTE]
