Neville to hit 100 games as Safeguard Global ACT Brumbies name settled side for Reds clash

[Duluth]

Reds with an early maul try

7-0

[Bones]

The fuck was that!

[Duluth]

Red card coming

Red card coming

That was about as filth as you can get.

[KiwiMurph]

Has to be red

[Stargazer]

Yellow, then TMO to upgrade it to red.

[KiwiMurph]

Maloney that's awful as the lead commentator.

Instead of yelling out how is it only yellow perhaps explain that it will be reviewed and likely upgraded

[Duluth]

He dropped his head really early. Terrible technique.

[Canes4life]

That was a shocker. Is Toole still on the field? He was all over the place after that hit.

[antipodean]

I feel this is an excellent way to manage this (YC and review), but I'm surprised O'Keefe didn't go straight for a red card. I can't see how it's not.

[Stargazer]

@Canes4life No, O'Donnell has come on.

[antipodean]

Wilson has the worst hands in Australian Rugby. Other than running hard (in the unlikely event he catches a ball), he's got nothing.

[Canes4life]

Harry Wilson with his third clean drop. Hopeless.

The most overhyped player in Aus.

[Stargazer]

And there it is. The only outcome possible. Blyth's yellow has been upgraded to a red.

[KiwiMurph]

Between Blyth and Vest the Reds have some dumb second rowers.

And there is a case where I think there should be a proper red, doesn't deserve a replacement.

[Stargazer]

@Dan54 According to the applicable guidelines, a straight red is only for deliberate foul play. Not sure how to prove intent. I assume this is more for things like throwing punches ...
