[QUOTE="Dizzy, post: 977674, member: 21905"] The over-the-shoulder tackle being penalized is pretty poor and pathetic. There is absolutely no danger from that tackle and its a good effective tackle. Im all for the laws changing to avoid concussion rates rising and possibly someone being really hurt. But come on, and then you have the 'contact to the face' stuff. Whitelock should NOT have been penalized for pushing Farrell in the face. How is that penalized but the numerous neck rolls during the rucks arent? If theyre going for all this 'head contact' stuff. Then they need to be consistent and call it when it happens in the rucks because it is often. [/QUOTE]
