Only a penalty. Maybe I am a bit cynical but if that was a french player we would have seen a yellow.
Try Jordie Barrett, under the sticks… on counter-attack.

One can’t help feeling for the French.
35 @ McLook:
I was looking forward to this 2nd Test, to see if the French could bounce back from last week’s massive defeat… now after 12 minutes all the joy was taken out of the game.

I am by NO MEANS a French supporter, in fact I quite don’t like the French… but I agree with you… rugby should always be a contest and a fair contest.
The studio guest commentators are also lamenting the Laws as they stand…
NZ discussion team (not sure if you can see them during the half time break) agree that the red card was a ridiculous decision that ruined the contest.
