    Complete rubbish. If Stander's was red, that was too. My hole he fell on his back.

    They did indeed and that is either fraud or cheating of some description.

    Against the Stander incident, thats red. All day. We have been a victim of injustice there. Best shouldve taken his chances and remonstrated.

    Red all day long. Out of interest that same ref from the first test gave maxime machenoud a red for a fairly innocuous tip tackle yesterday

    The biggest problem in rugby, inconsistent refereeing

    Fair enough he wasn't looking but he jumped with one hand so wasn't going to catch it.

    In fairness, it was the TMO that called on the landing.

    Given that he hadn't a mission of getting to the ball that doesnt make it better.

    I genuinely do not understand how the TMO or Jackson thought he landed on his back. I just do not see how you could possibly come to that conclusion.

    It was clear as day he landed on his neck, beyond any doubt.

    Not even a penalty for me. Best could have get yellow for dragging back PSDT there.
