    Swinging arm to the head subject to mitigation? Its not like it was his shoulder connecting because the body height suddenly dropped. He was always dropping and its direct to the head. Gotta be red right?

    Would like to see a front on angle.

      Good call from the ref - any player diving to ground needs to take responsibility for what should be a normal tackle if they stayed on their feet.

      @antipodean nonsense. HJH was always falling and he flew in uncontrolled. At least a yellow up north.

          @Bones personally I’m not convinced on Plummers distribution skills he’s getting some love from Auckland and the Blues coaches at the minute
          Explains why Corey Evans wants out of Auckland

          Evans problem is his size.

          @KiwiMurph but his distribution skills and kicking options are way better ,Plummer getting a free pass as someone who doesn’t quite cut it as a top level first five but all of sudden wants to be a 2nd five .
          Former Harbour player Michael Little was a similar size to Corey Evans also with brilliant distribution and kicking skills ,another under utilised midfielder under Pat lams watch .
          Seems to be a pattern at Blues HQ,pick someone but never play them

            If the player stays upright, it is just a good tackle. It depends whether you think Ofa has time to change.

              Thanks for demonstrating your overactive imagination. What actually happened was HJH fell to the ground after catching the ball with Ofa taking one step for would've been a legitimate tackle had HJH stayed on his feet.

              Now you could just fuck off back to GAGR instead of crying about rugby here.

                    No he doesn't, because he's not in control. He didn't give himself time to change, that's exactly it.

                          What time is he supposed to give himself when in the space of one step the attacker dives to ground?

                              @Tim some of the passing from the Blues for guys who are full time professionals is awful
                              The timing of the pass and accuracy especially

                                        Saying Evans kicking options are way better than Plummer is a real stretch. He has barely kicked when playing for Blues or Auckland.

                                        I hear what you are saying re: distribution.

                                        Definitely selection issues. Someone like Segner always picked yet Rush never plays.

                                          Fucking stupid from Ofa

                                          Well-reffed, I though. Not much else Ofa could do there.

                                          He's not in control, reckless and lucky.

                                          If the player stays upright, it is just a good tackle. It depends whether you think Ofa has time to change.

                                          No he doesn't, because he's not in control. He didn't give himself time to change, that's exactly it.

                                          What time is he supposed to give himself when in the space of one step the attacker dives to ground?

                                          I find supporters way overestimate the ability of players to make decision about whether to pull-out from watching on TV.
