If that had been a shoulder charge, I can understand that mitigation. I'm not sure I understand how attempting to wrap mitigates a head to head...

the only change of direction that I saw was bracing for impact.

Outcome was on Tuesday: Ms Magatti did not accept that she had committed an act of foul play. On review of the video footage and other evidence,...

Very true.

As an aside, I think the Italian player (if it’s Maria Magazzi) has been cited, outcome not yet known

I don’t know if it’s changed, but there’s multiple share types, with options to increase certain shares based on your length in the premiership...

There’s and RFU webinar doing the rounds with Wayne Barnes, walking though a lot of examples, talking through the process, considerations, degrees of...

I remember being surprised to find that London Irish were included after they had been relegated.

RC for me. I understand all the arguments about a relatively low degree of force. But the player went into a tackle high, had time to lower and...

Just seen it - looks like a red to me, by current framework.

the Premiership is owned by the 12 clubs currently in it + Saracens correction ...

for me - under current guidelines - that looks like a card

so who has the 13th share? EPL themselves as a ltd company or similar?

If its anything like the Football Premiership (and I suspect it uses the same model), it was formed and one share was issued to each club, giving...

Can somebody tell me how that came about? Since the National Leagues were first formed, only Bath, Wasps Gloucester, and Leicester have never been...

well... I would respectfully suggest that we are now entering a subjective area whereby potentially the only likely real impact of stopping head...

Sometimes even at grass roots. Some years ago watching a local side (now defunct) I saw a fly half who looked more like a second row kick a drop...

I'm assuming - and could be wrong - that degree of danger correlates to the force of the impact - in that the impact in the ladies game was lower...

there may be nunaces that you are aware of that I'm not, but I'm not seeing a low degree of danger here. its a direct head clash. what higher...

Im presuming this info is not publically available?

Agreed. Somewhere in the continuum in between “deliberate” and “accidental” there is “reckless” and/or “with no consideration for the safety of the...

It seems to me that the new framework undermines the efforts of the game to get rid of the stand up tackle. In this case, and using the framework, no...

Ignoring the RC example, and framework alone I get to PK - low degree of danger, but I wouldn't argue if someone gets to YC. I would like to...

No significant height drop, and blue has run in from a few meters so arguable time to adjust, it wasn't passive in the sense that blue was intending...

Thanks Dickie. So - that deosnt describe what happened in Ita v Eng then? So foul play has occurred. and a card of some colour at least and...

10th April - last weekend.

Last weekend? Women's 6 nations has only been going 2 weeks I think

play on in these situations: In all others, foul play has occurred.

the attached is dated 10th March. What was date of women's game? ...

its accidental in the same vein that the Italian tackle was deemed accidental by the TMO, and agreed with by the ref. Its not accidental that the...
