And Its Smith Posted September 9, 2023 Report Share Posted September 9, 2023 (edited) I’m no rugby expect so will go with the experts. Vast majority don’t seem to be arguing with it so presume it’s a correct decision. Edited September 9, 2023 by And Its Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTone Posted September 9, 2023 Report Share Posted September 9, 2023 If that's a red card then the Argentinian will be up for the guillotine for his misdemeanor.

kit Posted September 9, 2023 Report Share Posted September 9, 2023 It's a crapshoot. It's where the football world cup was around 3 iterations ago when any foul was a yellow and games ended up 9 a side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they want to stop players accidentally clashing heads then they are going to have to stop the ball going over head height,it’s a simple answer to a ridiculous rule Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the 50:22 law in place, if an attacking team kicks the ball from anywhere in their own half and it bounces inside the opposition’s 22 before then bouncing into touch, the kicking team gets the throw at the resultant lineout. When this kicking law came in the hope was that with it, more space will be freed up across the pitch as players drop back to field tactical kicks.

So the Argentine player caught the ball with his momentum bringing him forward as he was landing. The English player was coming into tackle him as he landed. They clash heads. What did the English player do wrong? Is he supposed to just let the Argentine player run off with the ball? Explain it to me as as someone who hasn't played the game for 45 years and only watches WCs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's supposed to bend at the hips, so that the Argie then lands on his head and flattens him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoystonFoote'snephew Posted September 9, 2023 Report Share Posted September 9, 2023 I didn't think we could win this but the Pumas are rattled with George Firds two brilliant drop goals. I'd love us to win if only to see Michael Cheika throw his toys out of the cot. He was a pain in the ass and a real moaning minnie when he coached Australia. Every decision against his sides are treated as if the whole world is, against him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
