@jn-xw3cq

9 ай бұрын

Pretty sure it wasn't. I remember going through the highlights and seeing multiple angles of that tackle. Koroibete got lucky he wasn't called for not wrapping in the tackle. It was a very dangerous tackle at that speed. I think there may have been a tussle that formed after that tackle between the Springboks and Aussies over that tackle actually.

@jn-xw3cq

9 ай бұрын

I could be wrong about the tussle but the tackle even if the case was made that the Aussie tried to wrap is kind of due to the tackle being made while the player was in air. It's just a hard call to make if it was legal or not due to the airtime. Cause a tackle on an aerial player is supposed to be illegal but technically you're not supposed to jump over a tackle in some leagues so idk.

I love this game. I played it for 20 years. It is the ultimate sport.

That last tackle was epic fair play 👏👏
