Has Will Skelton been lucky to escape being banned this weekend? Similarities to Bastareud here...

@RugbyInsideLine Nothing to see here. Move on!

@EGRugby @RugbyInsideLine Nothing to see? He dives shoulder first into a players head. His feet clearly leave the ground!

@ceedee72 @RugbyInsideLine It's rugby not Chess! Plus the shoulder makes contact with his sturnum not his head. His head comes up as a result.

@EGRugby @RugbyInsideLine It’s very clearly his face that the shoulder makes contact with. Haven’t a clue what you’re on about with the chess comment. Also even if it was the sternum that the shoulder made contact with, it’s still not legal to dive into a ruck like that with feet leaving the ground

@ceedee72 @RugbyInsideLine Just coming from a rugby perspective. It's not dangerous. It may look bad if you slow it down but having played the game that won't have hurt the opposite player. Not trying to be disrespectful, just our opinion. Some of the citings of late are farcical.

@EGRugby @RugbyInsideLine I note that you’re assuming I have no playing experience too. I can’t think why you’d make such an assumption other than because of my gender

@ceedee72 @RugbyInsideLine Did we say you hadn't played the game? Just said we had and that's how we viewed it. There's a big difference!

@EGRugby @RugbyInsideLine No you pointed out that you’re giving a players perspective suggesting that I wasn’t. I might even be a ref for all you know. Anyway, point was, leaving feet to enter a ruck = not legal. Any contact with head = not legal. Leading with shoulder = not legal. Red card all day

@ceedee72 @RugbyInsideLine Leading with a shoulder yes. Everything you do in Rugby is shoulder lead. No visible contact with head, already in ruck. To the letter of the law possibly a red card. Just not in the way we were brought up playing it. Respect your opinion though.

@EGRugby @RugbyInsideLine Laws change and they have to be applied consistently. The contact was absolutely not below armpit line, that much is obvious even if you dispute contact with head. Leading with shoulders without any wrapping of arms is never legal regardless of where on the body it occurs

@ceedee72 @RugbyInsideLine And that's a ridiculous law as well as demonstrated by George Smith.
