[QUOTE="Fushitsusha, post: 152658"] Are you mad? The ref warned Rabeni 3 times for high tackles then he got a card, that's fair. There were also other high tackles that went unpunished by the ref and it could have cost Fiji even more so they were lucky in that department. [/b][/quote] After watching the replay, it was clear that the tackle wasn't as high as it seemed, and it also showed that Rabeni had his arms out to use in the tackle but the hit was so hard the player just bounced off his shoulder. The main problem with refereeing in this world cup has been so many uncessary penalties for supposed 'foul play' that have turned out to be nothing. Sure, there were a couple of other times in that game were Fiji were lucky to get away with a high shot but I felt this tackle was ok. Anyways, I find it hilarious that Springbok supporters are having such a whinge about dangerous tackling techniques. Next you'll find us Wallaby supporters putting down other teams for bad scrummaging and losing to weaker sides. :D [/QUOTE]
