No offence Frank, but Naholo’s tackle is far from cynical and intentional if you ask me. If you watch the replay, first contact is clearly made below Horne’s shoulder and his arm then slides upward due to the momentum of the tackle.

I wasn’t surprised about the yellow card, just thought the tackle wasn’t cynical enough for it to be handed out with a penalty try. Like you said though, contact with the head to prevent a try stacks up in the rule book.
