    I can't believe the ref. That's a yellow card at least.

    Intention doesn't matter sir. It's no arms and high. And that's from a Leinster fan

    Idiot.

    That's a terrible call. He deserved instant yellow. Attempt to wrap is generous. It was high and possibly to neck or jaw area.

    That's a bull**** call.

    Won't have any impact on the game, but a bull**** call all the same.

    He could easily be cited for that, his discipline this season has been terrible.

    Yup WR have spent the last 2 years repeatedly saying intention doesn't matter. Ref he didn't intend to do it so he grand

    Indeed, not the first time. Has he just forgotten how to tackle, or something more intentional???

    One score game and our defence has been poor. Need to get this restart high up the pitch

    McFaddens reputation preceding him a little. Don't know how everyone missed the genuine attempt to wrap.

    Yellow on the basis of it being high perhaps but not for no arms.

    Having one arm out is not an attempt to wrap. He didn't get the reputation for no reason either, he's done silly things a few times this season

    He'll get a ban for that for sure.

    Agreed he's a liability but i saw a genuine attempt to tackle. Just got bounced on impact.

    Attempting to wrap is a other way of saying he didn't wrap.

    I honestly thought the tackle was fine and play on. If they don't instantly bounce away then he gets a wrap and completes the tackle. It wasn't high either.

    Having seen some of the decisions in all rugby competitions this year I wouldn't be so sure

    Mick Kearney for me. Did everything right, few big carries and lots of tough tackling too.

    Though I admit I was watching like a hawk.

    Not at all. Attempting to wrap is an another way of saying he attempted a legitimate tackle but got knocked backwards in a heavy collision. If true thats not a penalty.
