Anxious Wait for Beirne Ahead of Disciplinary Hearing
Beauden Barrett offered support to Tadhg Beirne over a red card upgraded from yellow after a head clash, with the All Blacks winning 26-13, officials said.
- On Saturday at Soldier Field, referee Pierre Brousset initially showed a yellow to Ireland lock Tadhg Beirne before foul play review officer Dan Jones upgraded it to a 20-minute red.
- The incident occurred when Tadhg Beirne made contact with Beauden Barrett's head while upright with arms crossed, and Ian Tempest's replay issues influenced the assessment at Soldier Field, Chicago.
- Beauden Barrett said after the match that `I can't hide from the fact that I copped a shoulder to that somewhere up there, that's what happened,' while Doyle called the red card `one of the worst in rugby`.
- Playing a man short, Ireland nevertheless briefly led before eventually losing 26-13 as Iain Henderson replaced Tadhg Beirne after 20 minutes following the red card upgrade.
- Officials spent about six minutes on the initial yellow-card decision after the stadium replay failed, forcing a sideline TV review; the 20-minute red card rule guided the bunker review team.
