"Leading with the head. We’ll go for a red card against 5 white."https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/1502691653966049282 Iain Henderson replaced Ryan, who went off for a Head Injury Assessment, as Johnny Sexton kicked Ireland 3-0 ahead. This is the second time in two games that Ireland have benefitted from an early red card hitting the opposition. Against Italy, their hooker Hame Faiva was sent off for a high shot on Dan Sheehan. In 2016, Raynal red-carded CJ Stander for a hit on South Africa's Patrick Lambie. He also sent off Bundee Aki for a high tackle on Billy Vunipola in the 2021 Six Nations."Yes. High degree of danger. We’ll go with a red card."
