[QUOTE="Derpus, post: 910334, member: 76427"] He He wasn't cited for this and his wasn't for a red card offense. It was for repeat infringing. Which is curious because he really did only grab onto the player once, and was duly punished. You could argue that he should have seen red with some merit (though god i hate reds). But that wasn't what the judiciary argued. It's all very perplexing. For every other challenge, Folau was in a realistic position to get the ball and was challenging fairly. It was the single lift that created the danger. In the end, though, i think they'd prefer to keep the single lift and punish Folau. Because Folau is basically the only one who can jump like that, but anyone can do a single lift. [/QUOTE]
