RWC: Speculation About Read Being Cited

[nzzp]

@taniwharugby 36 hours, on p3 of the document I found

Edit: 12 hours for team referral, 36 hours for citing commissioner, hearing within 48 hours. Fast justice

Mitigating circumstances?
Olmstead is offside and obstructing Read's arm from wrapping. Read readies his arm to swing around but is blocked from doing so.

I think it's OK - only if it reaches the red card threshold, and only if the citing commissioner decides to cite before 1-130 this afternoon NZT. Pretty sure it won't happen

One thing it showed is that McCaw forgot to pass the invisibility cloak on with the captaincy.

There is just soooooooooooo much World Anger about Read's non-citing. There are going to be huge marches through all the globe's major cities with millions of angry youngsters.
Greta Thurnberg is going to demand World Rugby sort their s**t out.
