Israel Dagg - lucky to only get a yellow card?
by brennomac Mon Jun 18, 2012 11:23 am
First topic message reminder :
Does anybody think that Dagg was lucky to only get a yellow card for his charge on Kearney late in the game. From my viewing, Dagg seemed to lead with his elbow right into Kearney's head - if Dagg was really trying to block Kearney's kick, wouldn't his arms be up in the air. Whatever, it was a cheap shot and if only Kearney's kick had gone 10m further it would have been within Sexton's range.
Oh and god preserve us from one-eyed pundits. Sean Fitzpatrick saw nothing whatsoever wrong with Dagg's charge. Pathetic, especially from an NZ icon!

There is never such a fuss made about it by the Tri Nation guys.
The 'fuss', as you know biltong, was initiated by someone of unknown nationality (Foreigncaricatureland is my best guess) who said the cardable offence shouldn't have been a card.
The rest of us were bemoaning a loss or celebrating a 'near' win at the time. You agree? I dislike the way the history of threads and ideas gets twisted by the recent readings of them. The problem with the card didn't come from us, it came from some who said it shouldn't have been one (a tri-nation fan by the looks of it). That was the beginning, and you're well aware of that, biltong.
What?? Brennomac start the thread! And was about how yellow wasn't enough for this "crime". Sean Fitzpatrick was correct and he half Irish!

Red and a ban 12-18 weeks would be fair.
