    Legally it is part of WR powers, to retrospectively change the result of a game as a punishment. So it is possible, be so good if they did - imagine the mess! It would be worth it just to see Keo explode

      @machpants I was going to object to imagining Keohane explode then I read this

      https://www.keo.co.za/never-change-the-dna-that-makes-the-springboks-world-champions/

      The Springboks surpass the All Blacks in terms of World Cups because their three titles have come from two less tournaments. The Boks, because of sporting isolation, did not play in the inaugural 1987 and 1991 World Cups, won by the All Blacks and Australia respectively.

            Not really a surprise that one. The SA defence at the moment is probably the best I have ever seen.

                            So I just spent two hours reading the decision.

                            What an absolute clusterfuck. Everyone is going to be unhappy with this. They basically found Erasmus guilty of lynching Nice Berry and then giving him a slap with a wet rag.

                            I hope to go into it in more detail, but the punishment is too light while the the factual findings are, largely, over the top.

                                  Any way - if a certain Irish barrister and Twitter personality that may or may not support Munster still lurks here - I'd love to hear his view on the matter.

                                    It's wrong however does it, and I agree Hanson had a poor record of this as well.

                                      @kiwimurph classic World Rugby; 6 months later, a consequence.

                                      A ban from a sport that isn't played in the SH during those two months..? Not much of a consequence is it?

                                        What effect will it have?

                                        I believe the practice of pre-game meetings between referees and teams was stopped because it turned into a shit fight of accusations.

                                        Now this.

                                        My first thought when the video was released, and not watching it but looking at the commentary around it:

                                        "World Cup Champions or World Class Victims?"

                                          World rugby really needs to address this and the larger problem of referee abuse and influencing. There needs to be meaningful sanction or we’ll be heading further down the soccer route.
