Courtney Lawes - non argentines/english

Black is the new white... didn't you know?

I feel bad for Lawes. It looked to me as if his original angle was to tackle in case Ledesma stayed on his feet and when Ledesma went down to Wigglesworth, Lawes found it hard to readjust, but still wanted to make the tackle to try and force Ledesma into touch. In the end, it looked a bit clumsy but I'm not sure what Lawes could have done differently.

Here's the clip btw. The Ledesma challenge happens at 1:10. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xl16c6_lawes-desosse-tiesi-et-ledesma_sport

yes I would say thE same and by your logic I could go around punchng people as long as not in the head, a knee is a knee just like a punch is a punch, I'm not saying ban him for life but the punisment is justlordhope, how is the irl favouring people in black jerseys?

That doesnt equate at all, a punch is striking, going into a tackle accidently is not, and the All Blacks are renowed for getting away with murder.

 

[Kiwiwomble]

you are not allowed to strike with your knees just like you're not allowed to punch so if you slide into a tackle knees first.....then you're going to stike with your knees

pretty simple really

if he had dived and knocked him out on the ground or tackled him into someone else then i can see thats an accident

and i was asking how people in black jerseys were being favoured hereor are we just sliding those kind of comments in here and there now

:lol: Strangely the only people who believe that have an Australian flag under their name....

Ole Richie needs to learn to get his head out of the way next time. Clearly his fault not QC's!!

Surely Paddy O'Brien pulled some strings to avoid Richie being cited.
