wonder if World Rugby will appeal this one? Marx was nowhere near the ball and was actually retreating out of the ruck area, Barrett leads with a shoulder onto a prone player and gets away with a yellow?????
A couple of rugby laws on entering the ruck: -An arriving player must be on their feet and join from behind the offside line. -Players must endeavour to stay on their feet throughout the ruck.
Okay that was not the worst head contact ever but still, it's completely useless and stupid. It's his second test level red card and yet he gets away with no suspension at all. Clearly some teams have it better than others. World rugby pretending to care about players' safety is the sickest joke ever.
@@scottwalton1422yes of course. Diving on and hitting a defenseless player using your shoulder, with clear intent, on the ground, is a yellow? I can show you ten red cards that have been given to other players for head high contact in the tackle, but because he is an AB there is no suspension. If this was an Aussie, South African or other there would have been outrage.
Still can’t believe this wasn’t a straight red anyway. And he’s managed to get away without a ban.

No head contact at all.
Was a yellow card offence.
@@scottwalton1422That’s why he got a red. It was his second yellow.

Joke
@@theriddler5601agreed. So no further discussion necessary on being banned.
Punished sufficiently during the match.
