And I'm starting to think eventually it's got to come in where the line is the end line.
And if you're aiming above that, well, then it's your responsibility to actually to do whatever you can to get out of the way of that guy.
Because this is, again, a shoulder full to the face is what it is.
And I don't care how you want to explain it.
That is what we're looking at.
He can be playing the game.
Well, obviously when he's not reffing, that's what he is doing, isn't he?
Clearly.
He ranks the room with three different mirrors in, so where he's going, he's getting a good view.
I mean, who wouldn't looking at that?
That's sharp and smart.
Isn't it about time that the ref doesn't, because of the speed of these offences and the fact that unless he looks at the replay like the TMO, he's not seeing it again and again and again.
The mitigation and everything else I think should be taken out of the referees from here on.
It should actually be somebody else that decides on that because you can't tell in that split second.
But again, in both Zahn Sullivan and Haveli's tackles, they're coming into a tackle shoulder first.
But when you come in shoulder first, what can happen?
You're either going to hit the guy here or you're going to hit him here.
There's only two things that can happen.
I just don't think that the guy with the ball has got any time to get out of the way of that.
They say he's ducking or he's moving or whatever, but you're not thinking, if you're running with the ball, you're not thinking of that guy's shoulder.
