Agree with it or not it was close enough you should know if you lead with your shoulder and don’t go low enough it will be red - that’s the game now

A red? Yellow sure but come on they gave a red for contact to the head but shorrocks was leant forward and below head height bit of common sense

That’s actually irrelevant.

You cant only punish when there are injuries.

Nowhere near his head. That was shoulder to ball.

Yeah I know that’s why I said about it not being low enough - but tackles in which you lead with your shoulder are more likely to get the “contact with head” decision

How can it be direct contact with his head when his head shot forward from the initial contact. If anything his head hit Shorrocks shoulder not the other way around.

When the player looked like he didn't know where he was it does.
