Unfortunately, it was far more than 1 moment as far as I could tell.
Even when he was in the line he was basically hands on knees blowing like a flathead out of water.
I've been a defender of his position in the Wallabies, but it's not tenable now.

some combination about the pure skill, the involvement of a star like Sua’ali’i and that it was against the Chiefs but I shared that wonder try on my Insta. First time in a long time have I reshared rugby content on social media. Feels good to be a proper nuff again.

That was a remarkable win, WTF has that been the last fortnight. Two dis-allowed tries, one fair, the other dubious, the final five minutes defending against the leading team in Super rugby for 30 plus phases with a man down to win, can only be described as heroic. You would like to think that would change the mind-set of this team, the need to play for 80 minutes believing they are a team that can always win.
So many big performances, I can't name a single member of the run-on side that didn'tproduce a big performance. One I will mention is Teddy Wilson, not ready for the Lions, but what a prospect for 2027 WC.
Finally, if the high hit on JAS with the shoulder doesn't result, our game has learnt nothing about protecting players from head injury.

Its already clear that Super Rugby has told the refs NOT to protect players from head injury. In the Reds/Brumbies game Noah Lolesio coat hangered the halfback only to hear "its only a penalty, he hit his shoulder first". Because of the shape of the shoulder, almost every swinging arm that hits the shoulder will cannon up onto the head. But its alright because he hit the shoulder first. I do not recall one straight red this comp and we are up to round 8, and I think there is only one yellow that has been upgraded to 20 min red. I don't blame the refs for that, they are all obviously working under instruction.

This is a bit hyperbolic. If there was a concern for Tate's health he would of been taken off for a HIA enforced by the doctor.

Watched the game over yesterday morning and this morning due to family stuff. But the telling comment from my young fella was "why is the ref so mean to the Waratahs" after hearing my reaction to the continued bizarre calls.
That scoreline really flattered the chiefs, and it was good seeing the defence in the last 20 minutes really hold after the leaking of points the previous two weeks.
The coast to coast try surely has to be a high contender for try of the year.

It should happen every-time there is a yellow level head knock

4 reds cards so far this season, and 5 suspensions by the judiciary
I have genuinely watched this somewhere between 50 and 100 times now.

Is the argument that initial contact shoulder to shoulder, i wonder?
