[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 870675, member: 40658"] You mean, the one that was referred to the TMO, and the TMO advised the referee that a yellow card should be issued after the referee wanted to go with just a penalty?? The thing here is that those tackles are completely outlawed now by WR, so I don't get why some Argentine players still want to tackle like that, with or without arms, those tackles for the sake of player safety are very dangerous. I think that he was lucky in getting the yellow, as it seemed that his left arm was partially being used in the tackle. If his left arm wasn't used to complete the tackle, I think the sanction would have been a straight red card. I'm a bit nervous now for the Aussies after these last 2 games against the AB's. I think guys like Genia, and Beale who we haven't seen much of during Super Rugby, has made a massive difference to their squad. Historically the Bokke has a rather poor record in Australia. At home the record is better, but over there, we seem to really struggle. [/QUOTE]
