Their first man at every breakdown kneels on the tackled player - it means he can't be cleared legally without contact to the head, and also he's off his feet, but they get away with it every single time.

He's allowed to do it if a ruck hasn't been formed.

He is not allowed to kneel on the player on the ground, which means he is not supporting his own bodyweight. He is obviously allowed to contest the ball as long as he remains on his feet and supports his own bodyweight.

Oh so we’re going several phases back for that forward pass - which wasn’t what Poite was asking to look at - but we couldn’t have a look at the hit on Hogg after the first try?
