Here is another video from the team of National Panel Referees for review. This video covers a wide spectrum but reiterates the management at the Tackle & Ruck. It also touches on the “clear and obvious” calls, Foul Play, Obstruction and Scrum Wheeling.<\/p>\n

Video:\u00a0https:\/\/vimeo.com\/38574917<\/wbr><\/a><\/p>\n

Also, last week our post<\/a> prompted some great discussion about Red Cards. It is a mandate that any\u00a0Dangerous\u00a0Tackle\/Dump Tackle (tip tackle) should be dealt with harshly. With any dangerous tackles or foul play, start with a RED in your head and make a decision based on an objective assessment (as per Law 10.4(e)) of the overall circumstances of the tackle. We urge you to review the most recent Law Guidelines and\/or Memorandums from the IRB on these decisions:<\/p>\n

January 2011-\u00a0IRB Memo: Dangerous Tackles (High Tackles)<\/a>
\nAugust 2011 –\u00a0IRB Memo: Dangerous Tackles and Dangerous Grasping of the Neck and\/or Head<\/a><\/p>\n

You may notice that these guidelines do not\u00a0call for a\u00a0RED or YELLOW for this or that, it is up to us as referees to know the 10.4 law and make\u00a0an objective assessment (as per Law 10.4(e)) of the overall circumstances of the tackle.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
