[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 799825, member: 40658"] I honestly can't see why there is even anger or frustration with regard to the 2 red cards. Both of those events were off the ball shoulder clear-outs to the head or spine of the opponent. It's a straight red card, and if those thugs can't understand what they did wrong, then they should be educated. No point in blaming the ref. He followed the laws, and even got the TMO involved who specifically check for foul play, which both instances were. During this whole Super Rugby tournament we've seen how strict the referees are with foul play, and actions which could harm the opponent in a career ending way. These clearouts are way worse than the contests in the air, where players also got red cards for. Keep perspective. [/QUOTE]
