Chiefs Props saying "hello" to the AB selectors.

It's a great prop battle isn't it and the non AB props are putting their hands up and out so far!

So why hasn’t Narawa gone off for an HIA ..?

Why should a player be forced to leave the field when he doesn't need to because of foul play from another?

It’s not about the foul play per se, it’s the fact he has received a head knock that has been deemed serious enough for a card to be given.

Because that’s World Rugby’s rationale

Post-career head problems are the result of single big hits AND successive smaller ones

If a player cops one to the head that’s deemed YC or RC worthy by the officials then they should be removed from play for an HIA

Otherwise, what’s the point?

@KiwiMurph well not at this level...

More bad technique

[nostrildamus]

Yeah I thought no arms tackle but ref didn't seem to say that

[Frank]

Ah Kuoi has been good so far.

[steelpotato]

Gardner's normally clear with his decisions surprising he didnt explain more clearly penalty was for no arms

[Mr Fish]

Not allowed to tackle Damian, he's a special boy.
