Return fixture - Clermont (H) - 16th April 2022

[Pellsey]

Another unbelievable red card. The winger ducks, Chessum tackles into the shoulder and because the the winger is leaning with his head into Chessum, he hits the head after the shoulder. Not directly into the head. The game is really getting silly.

In this case, the winger actually ducking with his head first into Chessum must be huge mitigation.

I await someone to explain to me how that was a red and Aki's tackle on Sexton yesterday was a yellow.

Clear red....Chessum made no attempt to adjust his tackle height

Adjustment or not the point of impact was NEVER direct to the head, it was just fantasy time from poor officials.

[WhitecapTiger]

Great try.

Take incompetent officials out of the equation.

[Jimmy Skitz]

No doubt about that red sadly, though I do agree with what Austin said

[WhitecapTiger]

Freddie Burns misses conversion, clearly also under instruction not to make Marcus Smith look bad at conversions

You are right but the way refs currently look at it that’s always a red, no nuisance considered

Then refs need to go to Specsavers.

See above comment fro wigworth about Aki on Sexton yesterday, worse than Chessum yet only a yellow card.

It is not the decision per se that I argue against but the often blatant inconsistent (grossly/perversely subjective) application of the law(s). The TMO said direct contact shoulder to head - which was incorrect, clear as day.

Freddie Burns selfish, butchers a good opportunity.

[WhitecapTiger]

Jeez that was NFL quarterback forward missed by incompetents and then CA get a penalty.

Couldn't write this.
