[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 974771, member: 58362"] Having gone back and watched the incident, I take that back, Nige obviously saw what Whitelock did, so he may well have reviewed it with the TMO even if Farrell hadn't given him the time to do so. As has already been established, it wasn't simulation to con the referee a la Andy Haden so there's no controversy in that. If you're really going out of your way to find something to fall out with, I guess you could argue that if he was Hollywooding, it violates some sort of "spirit of the game" law. Was it Hollywooding though? It appears to me that after Whitelock's open handed strike (you have to already be in contact with something in order to push it), TJ Perenara takes it upon himself to dive on Farrell and one of his hands appears to make contact with Farrell's face.
