Is anyone else completely disgusted that Kevin Mealamu and Tana Umanga have completey escaped punishment for ending Brian O'Driscolls tour?
It always seems like one rule for NZ and another for the rest of the world.
For those of you who didn't see it, in the 2nd minute of the game, a ruck formed. Once the ball had gone, BOD was still at the ruck, not realising the ball had goine, pushing against Jerry Collins. Mealamu and Umanga came in, grabbed one leg each and lifted BOD. Mealamu then speared him into the ground, dislocating his shoulder, in a move which could have broken his neck. It should ahve been a red card, possible for both players, as it was intentional dangerous play, but the referee and touch juddge both missed it. There are numerous camera angles showing the foul - replayed on Sky Sports, yet the citing commissioner has said that there is no case to answer. what a w@nker.
As if to confirm Umanga style of play he later tripped Josh lewsey, another carding offence, but he got away with it again.
I'm absolutely disgusted.
