So it's almost impossible to find a solution to this.

In the way the game is ruled, referee today, it was a harebrained clean-out

but you'd like to be able to see that you can still clear out like that because Gellar wasn't hurt.

He hit him hard, he hit him square, he hit his head.

So that's the immediate red card.

Had he hit just his shoulder or his arms or his ribs,

it would have been a great clean out.

But then I know John O'Sullivan will be here and he will be saying, you go in that quick, that loose, that reckless, you take your chances.

Clearing out rucks isn't a tackle.

So you're not grabbing a guy, you're clearing him out.

So I don't think, it would be interesting now, I'm sure somebody will correct me on this, but I don't think you have to bind for a clear out.

Well, a tackle is a tackle because you are actually wrapping a person, whereas a rook, you're trying to clear them out.

Just get rid of them.

No, no, no, sorry, not from you.

Everything that I've seen has just been like, oh, have they not learned from Paz before?

I'm just like, oh, wow.

Christ, I'm just blown away.

I'm delighted that he's signed on.

And I think it will be a good thing for Irish rugby.

I think whoever the group of players that he has, I think he'll get the best out of them.
