WATCH: Unnecessary tackle on Lawes sees yellow - but could have been worse...

BY Shaywaterworth  ·  Saturday Nov 13, 2021

Wallabies prop Angus Bell received a borderline yellow card against England on Saturday for a dangerous tackle.

The 21-year-old made a joint tackle with Izack Rodda on England flanker Courtney Lawes midway through the second half shortly after the veteran had passed the ball on his inside.

However the issue arose when Bell continued the tackle and dumped Lawes onto his shoulder well after the ball had gone.

Referee Jaco Peyper awarded a yellow card for the incident following a lengthy TMO decision, but had Lawes not put his arm out to ease the fall, Bell may have found himself in deeper trouble with the officials.
