[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 960696, member: 73592"] Just watching Russia Samoa now - how the hell are those only yellow cards? For the first one, Poite wanted to give red, but the TMO talked him down (wrongly IMO - there was a dip - but I don't believe it made enough of a difference); the second one, he just stuck with his previous logic even though it didn't really apply. Didn't this match take place a day AFTER World Rugby announced that the ref.s had been getting it wrong and needed to tighten up and grow some balls when it came to showing cards? If it was a few hours beforehand, then I'll kinda understand, Poite was following the precedent shown over the first few days; but if after, then it's an outright terrible copule of decisions.
