If Wardle gets a ban surely we all give up?

If they are consistent I expect a £250 fine.

it was no worse than the tackle on french at the end but no sin bin

Just a note, Willie Isa was class tonight, full of energy and aggression in attack and defence, great line speed and organisation on that right hand side.

Maybe not worse, but nevertheless, Wardle's was a yellow all day long as far as I'm concerned. The others, not so much.

Attackers are getting so good at passing right at the line these days. You see at least one of them shots etc game. Wardle was late but wasn’t too high ( if I remember correctly).

Late = pan
Really late = 10 mins
Really late and direct contact to the head = red and ban.

They’ve been less harsh will bans this year so expect just a fine.

And he tackled him head on and not from the back.

The reason I think he'll get a ban is because Gareth O'Brien failed his HIA. Not sure if they're supposed to be taking that into account but reckon they will regardless.

I thought Wardle was a bit late and over zealous but a ban would be harsh, the other penalties where very harsh imo, the tackles where just after the ball had gone.
