    Even Dan Carter admitted it was a fair hit via Twitter

    The problem is that he had the TMO to help him but he was stubborn and decided that Bismarck was wrong before he even asked for a decision.

    Bismarck's red card has been removed from the history books.

    SANZAR judicial officer Terry Willis has removed a red card from the disciplinary record of Bismarck du Plessis.

    It comes in the wake of the International Rugby Board announcement that French referee Romain Poite was "wrong" to issue the first yellow card to Du Plessis during a crunch Rugby Championship match between South Africa and New Zealand at the weekend.
    I saw it as a shocking call, both yellows, shows you what happens when they send their biggest tackler (Messam) to tackle Bissy, but I told my buddy this after the game, a player like Bismarck has a 'reputation' just like Bakkies and the penalties against them are often more harsh because of the reputation.

    The championship (I feel) was lost the moment they got the 4th try two yellows in the last 10 minutes was never going to justify the unfair red Bissy got.

    On a positive note - I felt Adriaan (who I rate very highly) stepped up his game in the tight loose - his only 'weakness' when compared to Bissy - even though I feel he is better in the set pieces and as a ball carrier - he can offload and pass.

    I agree Piesangk, I thought the second yellow was also not justified.

    From where I was standing, it appeared as if the boks realized they were loosing the battle against the All Blacks and started behaving like a group of hoi polloi. On another point, someone needs to slip Meyer some valium before he induces his own heart attack.

    It sucks when you have a really small tv and have to stand far away while watching it.
