You'd expect the Citing Commissioner to step in and cite him anyway, because it should have been red.
Oh wow, swinging arm to the head only yellow?
Love the consistency around these cards for high shots
That’s a stiff arm, should be red.
Will be changed by the authorities later and he’ll get a holiday.
Thought that was a classic case of going for the tackle when the player falls over. Yellow card fine with me. I know you can make a strong case for a red under the current laws, but they're partly why I'm still clinging to the cricket season too.

@tim "stiff arm" isn't in the rules; I think "force" is, but not sure.
Stiff-arm is in the laws. It's dangerous play.
Finally a kick that comes off for the Chiefs.
I suppose if you throw enough stones at the window, one will hit eventually.
Good finish Alaimalo
Law 9.13 I think:
A player must not tackle an opponent early, late or dangerously. Dangerous tackling includes, but is not limited to, tackling or attempting to tackle an opponent above the line of the shoulders even if the tackle starts below the line of the shoulders.

TTT better than Webber already
Another example of great coaching...

Looks a millions times better. He needs to be starting

Nope, 9.12:
A player must not physically or verbally abuse anyone. Physical abuse includes, but is not limited to, biting, punching, contact with the eye or eye area, striking with any part of the arm (including stiff-arm tackles), shoulder, head or knee(s), stamping, trampling, tripping or kicking.
Scrum down, 12 runs in to pat everyone on the back, retallic grabs him and pushes him out "fuck off mate, the men are working"
Haha Fa’auli runs into to pat the forwards on the back, BBBR grabs his shirt and throws him out of the way, thinking to himself ‘fuck off idiot’.
Great way to finish.
Gee the chiefs largely sucked but they hung in and got the job done.
Deserved win to the Chiefs, but the score is flattering them big time.
FT: Chiefs 41 - 28 Bulls
Try time, we won. Yay.
M4L wonders why he supports the Chiefs given he only likes 3 of our players
@mariner4life snap
A game of two halves. Bulls will be wondering how many penalties in a row their opposition needs to give away to get a deserved YC.
Chiefs do well again to dig themselves out of a hole.
@stargazer he was only only Chief on the field wasn’t he?
i'd like to see Aumua at centre to partner ALB, TTT should start, BBBR needs a bit of help though is Bird gone for the season
Bulls decided to stop being good about 10 mins before halftime, Chiefs had it from there. Not a great show apart from Amberley's Finest, Pollard is a decent player too.

Thought this was the Chiefs/Bulls thread, but now not so sure.

BBBR, Cane the Destroyer and ALB?
