[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 802770, member: 40658"] Here's the video: [URL='<iframe width="854" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SVLH-od1pV8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>']<iframe width="854" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SVLH-od1pV8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>[/URL] Now let's look at your points. 1. He was in the air before kick - [COLOR="#FF0000"]No, CJ wasn't in the air before the kick, It was actually the no. 7 player that made a half-hearted jump before the kick was made.[/COLOR] 2. He got touch on ball with both hands - [COLOR="#FF0000"]No, his hands didn't touch the ball at all.[/COLOR] 3. He didn't raise knees in a dangerous way but it was his hip that did damage due to turning in a natural way. - [COLOR="#FF0000"]Hmm, debatable. He didn't come from the side to charge down, he came from straight ahead of Lambie, in fact, he was standing in the fly half position to defend. When he jumped, he didn't lift his arms to charge down the kick, nor kept his body wider to create less space for the ball to go through. Instead he jumped, turned in a sideways position and didn't lift his arms.
