He sealed off the attacker, off his feet, completely, and while not wanting to be sent to the bin, knew it was inevitable...

Yeah it was a yellow. He got trapped there, standard tactic, well executed. Can’t argue.

Being trapped under an opposing player invariably leads to a penalty/card which is why all teams make sure that players remain pinned in place.

I think the fact that Luke Pearce had warned Robbo that there'd been a number of penalties both before and after the break when defending in our own 22 meant that it was going to be a yellow, even though normally it would have been a penalty over. I'd say even that was harsh from what I saw on the replays, as as IQPH says, he was somewhat trapped in place by a Warriors player.

From the South stand, our view of the big screen suggested he was pinned in place by the second Worcester player after attempting to compete for the ball. It was always going to be dangerous to leak a penalty there though, given the context.

Brown for the least deserved yellow ever  😁

Once we got to 28, I suspect they cared more about avoiding injuries than preventing tries, and rightly so.

Agree and why not!

To be fair 2 of those were when we were down to 14 men. Brown for the least deserved yellow ever and then when we had no more replacements left at the very end.
We did score 7 though 😁
