[QUOTE="Shaggy, post: 593359, member: 43400"] The same reason you wouldn't start an injured Brussouw in a crucial RWC match, without a specialist fetcher on the bench as back up, or an under done Dan Carter in 2007 - it's too risky ... as others have pointed out, the game was gone when the Boks were down to 14 men. ... not saying that ALL players should be subbed when they receive their first Yellow card, but those such as Nonu and Bismarck might be more of a risk, than some other players ... coaches should trust their complete squads IMO ... for example, Barrett seemed to go ok when he came on right?
