"The tackle that took him out was, from my point of view, an absolutely ridiculous challenge at that stage of the game."

"When you are at that stage of the game and your team is leading 2-0, there is a certain code I would suggest that you look after your fellow professional, and the lad has ignored that,"

"There was no need for the challenge at that late stage in the game and he has put a fellow professional's career at risk by the nature of it."

So 3 times ha stressed the problem was how late in teh game it was. Should we assume that at an earlier stage of the game, the tackle would have been OK, you don't have to look after your fellow professional, and that it's OK to put a fellow professional's career at risk?
