I thought the ref was fine
We've certainly had worse.
I didn't blow up at any of her calls in play, so sm iInterested how our Welsh posters saw her given my lack of indignation.
She was bullied out of awarding Jordan's try though.
She'll do plenty more tests.
I thought WJ was held up
Don't agree. She was talked out of trusting the evidence of her own eyes by an inconclusive super slomo.
Not true mate - the TMO showed her the footage and said he couldnāt overrule and she went against her own decision anyway
Yeah okay.
"I can't overule you" ... but I am.
These pricks talk in code. He 100% told her to overule herself.

Didn't he tell her to stick with her on-field decision and she said, 'no, I can see the ball was actually held up before I awarded the try'?

Plumtree off for YC hit on WJ. Those in passes aren't very good for us, every one resulted in our carrier getting smashed.
Our forwards have carried up the guts most of the game, as have the midfield. And DMac has played a decent controlling hand from 10. It sets up another try for Reece. I know it's only Wales. But the game plan felt so much better suited to our players. And I wonder why it's taken this long to play this way with this personnel. Razor and his coaches have really dug themselves this hole trying to be far too cute

I'm not surprised. Watching it in real time it looked as obvious as an obvious thing on national obvious day.
Telegraphed passes are hospital passes.

I thought she had a very good game, seems to have a good feel for the game, kept control but did not seem overly intrusive by today's standards. I'd happily have her ref us again

Apart from taking forever to disallow a Will Jordan try that she had clearly seen him ground, I thought Hollie Davidson had an excellent game.
I'd be happy for her to ref us again next year.

Should we concerned that a Welsh guy that few of us have heard of scored three tries down Will Jordan's wing?

Our defence down both sidelines was horrendous today.
-
Tackling and defensive positioning veered wildly from mediocre to crap, you'd think the ABs were playing a man or two down most of the game... assistant coach position needs a good hard look at.

Saw another one earlier in the match too. Like shooting fish in a barrel

No disrespect to Wales, they battled hard and scored four good tries, but they were weakest team we have played all year and that was our easiest win for some time. It felt like a bit of a training run at times.

It was a strange watch from a Welsh perspective.
I was fully expecting a 50 point defeat given how awful we have been over the last 2 years.
Pleased to see us score a few tries and look threatening out wide particularly, but surprised how easily we got to make ground in that outside channel against you.
Made me think it's a shame our team of a decade ago with the likes of Warburton, Faletau, AWJ etc didn't get a chance to play against this NZ team. They managed the odd win against SA and Aus but NZ at that time were always way too good.
We've now got a totally pointless gave against SA next week which is outside the window and we have to say goodbye to 12 or 13 of this squad to England and France.
It's going to be an utter disaster. -
Well you've found your back 3
If Razor goes away from that then he's dumber than we think
Centres looked good despite all the whinging on here. No better or worse than what's been picked this year
DMac with Roigard and you have a totally different back line proposition which will score tries for fun against everyone
Not just Wales
-
My missus went to the match and said it's the best atmosphere and spectacle she can remember in decades
They need to work on the smoke
That was bullshit
-
Holly was the best ref of the weekend by a country mile
Both were definite YCs
Iād have her reffing the RWC final if it was being played next weekend
Did you watch the other two matches?
Carly and Pearce - both English - couldnāt have been more different
You swap them and those matches would have been totally different
The inconsistency was glaring
I will say despite Hollandās supremacy at the lineout the ABs closed that line far too many times without being punished by Holly
My only black mark for the officiating team
-
Wales were never going to beat NZ but with 14 men for 20 mins I thought we did really well
Iāll throw it out here now
We wonāt get the wooden spoon this 6N
Great tries fair play
Iāve definitely changed my opinion of Edwards
Heās getting better by the game
Put Jac Morgan and Wainwright in that back row and we're winning far more clean, quick ball
And we're slowly building a back line who can take advantage of that

Agreed and the one I've been suggesting for the last two years.
God knows whether we will see it again though.

I think Luke Pearce is the best ref around at the moment, then Angus Gardner, then Hollie Davidson.

Well if he is - which I don't think is the case - then he needs to be the benchmark for decisions which every other ref works from
He waved things off yesterday which were YC and even RC worthy in other matches
It was a joke

Well Roigard - DMac; CC-WJ-Love 15 is such an upgrade. Why can't they see it?

@MiketheSnow Haven't seen it.
I like the way he lets the game flow, without it becoming chaotic. He'll talk rather than whistle.
I don't like the refs who keep slowing the action down. Fans pay to watch Rugby not the official.
