Does Josh Van der Vlier have to leave the field for that to be a red card?

It's nonsense.

And I think that was a big, big let off for New Zealand.

Interesting.

Yeah, I'm less fussed about the actual scoreline and the results.

But maybe the scoreline, would Ireland have won the game?

Maybe, maybe not.

But I think they definitely would have got a bonus point.

And when you look about the Nations Championship, that is kind of important.

Could that be the difference between them, where they finish in the top half of the draw, could be who they get in the draw.

So I think it's a big decision for Ireland, but I think just in general for world rugby and football.

My ex-players group with some of the lads, it's nonsense.

You know, you're talking about player welfare and a tucked arm to somebody's head.

Just because the other player doesn't leave the field, he's still tucked arm, hit him in the head and come off his feet.

It's hard to defend that.

And the mitigation that we saw on the screen was that his other arm was wrapping, that his arm was wrapping.

You know, more wrapped anything.

And once you come off your feet, it's like, you know, we're not helping ourselves here.

No, I think what they're saying was the right arm, the right arm was making an attempt to wrap after the contact, which is nonsense.

Like you have the safety of a 20 minute red card.
