Honestly the way some people on this site go on about Owen Farrell you’d think he’d been making repeated dangerous tackles for the past 8 years, often avoiding any sanction at all & receiving generous reductions on the rare occasions when he actually was cited.

I like Saracens and think Farrell is a good 10. But regardless of his record of cards etc, his tackleing techique has never been his best feature. For me the issue is he has never taken the time to become a better tackler and has often been close to the wrong side of being legal.

There's one bloke who keeps going on about fixing Owen Farrell's tackle technique: Owen Farrell
Said of 2020 ban "I can't defend that"
Took 4 week ban for foul play in Jan and - after a decade of international rugby - agreed he should go to "tackle school"
Chap is unrelenting

They’ve been told not to issue lengthy bans before the World Cup, damn the extent of the infraction. Players welfare is a secondary concern to them above this.
