I doubt whether Casboult saw Kennedy but he would have been free-kicked if he had been able to balk and block for him. Poor communication by our guys and a little over-ambitious on Kennedy’s part ... and very lucky for him that Casboult isn’t Fev.
Casboult had the play in front of him. He could see it all. Either he calls Kennedy out of it, or ensure Kennedy doesn't get cleaned up.
He doesn't have to 'block' so much as basically just stop running, which is effectively all the block that is required for Kennedy to mark safely.
What kind of message does it send when you put your body on the line and get cleaned up by your own teammate? Do you think Kennedy will be as willing to go next time? Is that the kind of message we want?
Funny how you brought Fev up as he was critical of the very same thing on multiple occasions....and i would've called him out for doing the same thing.
