Saw Will Greenwood talking about how it was (likely) the same barrister/KC that got England out of trouble for fielding 16 players for a short time in another world cup. He is by all accounts very good (the joke being he almost convinced people that rugby is supposed to be played with 16), but folks now concerned about the precedence it sets. WR looking to appeal the rescinding of the red now.

Problem is this is making them look completely ridiculous. I absolutely don’t agree with it being overturned but I really do think they should accept the independent committee decision and move on. They will then have time after RWC to reform the process, if need be.

True, but the panel being fully Australian, despite also independent, speaks to the hemisphere division over the tackle laws also. The south being more lenient and "fackin smash 'im, mate".

But I can't speak too loudly or we'd be without our captain...
