Other than looking at try or no try or how a ball has gone out of play and how to restart play is the video ref allowed to be involved in sendings off ?
I was talking about that specific incident, as the poster I was replying to was. I wasn't talking about the game as a whole because the poster I was replying to wasn't talking about the game as a whole. Just that specific incident.
Smith didn't send TP off. Thaler did. It is clear on the mic that Thaler just wanted to know who had made the tackle, which means Thaler sent TP off on the say so of that old geezer who came in from the touchline, because had Thaler actually seen the incident he wouldn't have had to have asked Smith for TP's name.
