[QUOTE="Five Meters Out, post: 825840, member: 72548"] I agree with the theme of your post Master Muffin. Refs, TMO's and the Rugby judiciary are currently ruling on outcomes. This has been most obvious when ruling on "taking out/tackling a player in the air". Re: Cane "Leading with the shoulder." I would be certain that in his mind that shoulder was going to drill the Irish boy in the upper torso. However, the Irish boy turned and arrived too soon for him to correct. There is always the chance of this occurring in those ball and all tackles. I make the point again as I did earlier, if you want to eliminate the injury possibility then tackle rule needs to be "below the nipple line" as is the rule in U13 rugby and below throughout NZ. Re: Reason - His rants are now starting to beggar belief and merely read as written in a manner so as to incite dumb Kiwi's. When he writes seriously he often makes some valid points. At other times, such as this week, I really don't think he actually believes what he is writing. [/QUOTE]
