That was NOT a tackle ffs
Then what was it? he collided with the man in the air, and with no feasible chance of winning the ball.
Oh I know it was a red all day in my eyes but in the way it's judged
I asked for evidence and you provided none. Facts > opinions.
Surely people have to question Schmidts ability under pressure..
Evidence of what? You asked for nothing off me and only facts I have are laws.
Le Roux made a hit on TOH in air and he landed on neck/shoulder. Law states that a red. Any interference in air comes under tackle laws
What part of the law states that? He had his eyes on the ball, was on the air and his hands were aiming at the ball?

That WAS the situation but now each player has to consider his actions and the effect it may have on another!
The Stander incident and the one with Hogg come to mind but both "Penalty" Skelton and Willie LR had no realistic chance of getting the ball with their one hand and both should have been red - Skelton was not even carded for that (or a swinging arm later)!!
Well that a bit unfair here considering all disruptions of injuries I'd say he has achieved on this tour
I know it is difficult but answered ages ago......
Ah we're three points down in a 1-1 series in South Africa without our best player. There are mitigating factors here, but I agree they're here for the taking, and we can win.Need to stop with the excuses, you were in a winning position last week, this SA team is on the rebuild and is quite honestly aawful. Need to take your chances by the balls for once in your rugby history and do something.
Don't have law book on me /QUOTE]
Maybe that's the problem

Is it the language difficulty or are you just rude per se?
