[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 1144849, member: 72977"] I have no issue with Curry's red. As Dawson highlighted, he had Daly right next to him doing the right thing, so while it wasn't malicious, it was a bad tackle technique. I do have an issue with Carreras, though I've yet to hear officially why it was only a yellow. I believe it's because initial point of contact is the shoulder and then head. If so then the law is flawed here. Some head contacts do happen because a player rides up after initial contact and it's the contact that forces them up. Carreras though was always going to hit Ford in the head. He just got lucky though and hit the shoulder first. The shoulder contact did not force the head contact. For me the shoulder contact should be ignored because it has zero impact on the head contact and it should be a red. [/QUOTE]
