Vunipola did something very similar to Barret and only got a yellow card

if i was a NZ fan Id be complaining about inconsistent Northern hemisphere refs

just saying

Surely Vunipola can't be selected next week.
Apart from the Barret incident he must have given away 6 penalties in the second half and is a liability.

Looked to me like he had been tasked with hitting Barret hard at every opportunity....just wasn't very subtle about it.

His following through with tackles after the ball had gone looked intentional on many occasions so you may be correct.
However, he is nailed on for a yellow card in the 3rd test and the Lions cannot afford it.

even SBW

Him too

First all black to be sent off in a test for 50 years. Considering their dirty style, it's remarkable - but then not surprising as they always have the ref in their pocket.

[Watcliff]

All blacks have had a man sent off. Huge opportunity now, but they need to cut out the errors.

Who? When? What?

Im sure the commentator said it's the first sending off in home games for that long..

Well done Lions.

It's going to get tough now ;)

[Tandy]

Well done Lions.

It's going to get tough now ;)

Yeah it's been easy so far.

[Majorblue]

Good win but I get the feeling that next week is going to be horrible.
Nevertheless I fully expected a 3-0 drubbing in the tests so well done all the Lions.

[Sgt. Pepper]

Yeah it's been easy so far.

Colin Meads was the last AB to be sent off in 1967.

[BlueArmy 86]

I just read that somewhere. I stand corrected!

The problem there is they'd end up picking players just because they're from a certain nation not on ability and right now there'd be little gain for the smaller nations watching England plus Bale so they'd have too start throwing in the odd Jock if they could find one
