If they believed it to be red they would’ve given it immediately, or viewed incident via TMO and discussed it between the 4 members (ref, 2x touch judges, TMO).

Again, never said it was, as I said above there was no intent to tackle player while in air, had there been it would’ve been red, as would spear tackles or going above horizontal… but you know, ref, touch officials, TMO, bunker official all happy with the yellow…

Not what I said, in the interest of player safety HIA should’ve been conducted, it has no bearing on punishment, nasty looking incidents don’t always equal foul play.
What does dictate the outcome is intent (both looking at ball or tackle while in air I.E. Ashman in sco game). Pen & yellow card ✅

I’m also a sports therapist, rehabilitator & first aider for a club so know all about duty of care, just cause an incident looks nasty, doesn’t mean it’s worthy of a penalty or more (hence my HIA comment)
