I ask this most rounds when something "meets the red card threshold" but isnt the TMO able to review these things and then communicate to the on field ref after the fact? The ref can then go back and still award a red card.
Just as useless as the AR's sometimes
I also thought the head hi tackle on TPN was borderline for a yellow and his legs came above the horizontal land it was around the neck..
Finlay got 3 weeks

If the TMO sees an indcidnet he can call it into the Ref. if he doesn't he can't.
I would like to see each Capt have perhaps x2 opportunities per game to ask for a TMO review so if they think there was a problem that was missed by the ref/TMO they can get it reviewed.
Post-game suspensions should result in points being deducted. Then the perpetrators might think twice about their cynical play.
To be fair, I watched the game live and on replay and I didn't see it.
Even on the replay it's hard to pick up a stamp.
Three weeks is probably pretty fair.
