    Neither the Saffas nor the Blossoms are going to lose any sleep at the thought of playing Wales in a semi.

      I hate getting on the reffing but in close games when you are hot on attack and there are obvious infringements and the ref swallows the whistle, it really does make it tough to watch.

        Wales were pretty gash. They aren’t winning anything. France only havé themselves to blame.

        Pretty much how they won the Six Nations, they are ugly but they have a habit of winning.

            You never know. Pressure is a funny thing and dicey reffing can keep any side in a contest.

              Boks have to be favourites to win the Cup from here. Whoever wins the England AB semi is going to be battered.

                I thought Jaco was typically fucking terrible - just that inconsistent bullshit of deciding which Laws he will referee at any given moment.

                Nic Berry would have been a better ref for this game

                  Who wins the Ab vs England game is going to be a good side.

                  That cannot be said of Wales. So beating Wales is not a sign you are a good side.

                        Oh wow, another camera angle shows the strip was clearly forward. Would have been nice for the TMO to have that angle!

                          No, Jonker tried to talk to Peyper who just said "OK, try". Jonker said "I've got another angle" and Peyper wouldn't listen

                            Nigel won't be reffing the other semi (I don't reckon Peyper will be either) and Barnes won't be reffing ours. Garces could do either.

                            Assuming that they choose from the four QF refs.

                            Gardner and Poite would probably be the others who might be considered - they can do both.

                                  I’m going to watch the replay of this game with interest, how France didn’t get a penalty earlier, I don’t know.

                                  Good that Wales win though.

                                      I feel pretty deflated actually. Wales don't deserve to be in a semi-final of the world cup.

                                      France are numpties. Just saw another replay on Spark that makes it look like the rip went forward. TMO didn't show that angle.

                                      All in all a crap second half.

                                        Great. It could well be purely frenchies in charge from here. Fuck you Wales.

                                        Nigel won't be reffing the other semi (I don't reckon Peyper will be either) and Barnes won't be reffing ours. Garces could do either.

                                        Assuming that they choose from the four QF refs.

                                        Gardner and Poite would probably be the others who might be considered - they can do both.

                                        Christ on a bike I hope not. Who's the younger of the French refs?

                                          I picked Wales to win by 6. And I feel dirty with that result.

                                          France were the better side, and Vaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaminha's elbow aside, they would have won easily.
