[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 979215, member: 72977"] While I get that, on the other hand he raises his arm out when he has no reason to do so, so it is an arsehole thing to do as it's cynical at the very least. He knew what he was doing and was trying to stop the Northampton player chasing the charge down. Even if he wasn't going out of his way to hurt the player he knew there was a risk that he could by his actions. That's what WR is trying to clamp down on, those contacts that don't look too bad, but can still injure the player, because over a career it builds up. I also remember someone famous once (can't remember who) saying don't give the ref the opportunity to send you off. Even if you or others disagree, Brew gave the ref the opportunity by being reckless. I personally have little sympathy. Only area I do have a little bit of sympathy in, is that others could well do similar and escape with a YC or just a penalty. [/QUOTE]
