Harsh against etzebeth

How is that not a sin bin?

 

[TommiG88]

Harsh against etzebeth

Harsh, he’s offside in the red zone

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Lol at ITV saying how good the ref is. When he will be getting death threats for weeks and months to come.

Nah, he's not carded a bok player

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

kolbe and ardense should at least have to wear different colored head gear

 

[TommiG88]

My son didn't, he is fuming with Barnes. A lot of leeway going the Bokke way.
Hit to head by PSDT was missed later on.

Couldn’t believe it wasn’t looked at. Ran in and forearmed the tackler to the face

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Etzebeth lucky not to get a yellow there to be honest, stopped a clear overlap

 

[AlRums]

Harsh, he’s offside in the red zone

He wasn't interfering with play, was running to get back onside. Unfortunate

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

There was a 4 on 2 that Etzebeth blocked with his lazy run. IMO he's lucky it was only a penalty.

We have seen equal to that stay yellow post-Curry, at least two instances i think. I think the bunker may have wanted red for Frizzel, it was such a late decision to keep it yellow, he was back on the park almost immediately after the decision So maybe there is some kind of cumulative pressure behind it.

Will be interesting if ABs can get within 3 if the Boks start to feel that weird 'extra man' pressure you sometimes get.

The ball hitting him is the definition of interfering

Not according to mcsalty. Simple mistake

If the refereeing team are doing it by the book, which they had been up to that point, then I agree with you

who, what, how not sure if I’m missing the point but the ball hits him in what universe is that not interfering with play?

hahahahaha you dog

 

[Tooting Carmen]

The quality of play isn't really that good, is it?

 

[GoTheNaki]

Typical Wayne Barnes game.

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

lazy runners have a responsibility to stay out of play. Generally, athletes know what they are doing.

 

[Rugbyfan564]

are kiwis proud of being unhinged now?

South Africans would do the same over a debatable red card.
