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

      Can we steal their defence coach?

                    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.

                              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.

                                      @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?

                                      also a ban on match-day involvement till September 30 next year.

                                      @kiwimurph Even then everything up until the match day. Presumably he can sit in the stands and have a runner passing messages at halftime?

                                      He should just be banned from the sport for five years.

                                        Or sit at home in his underpants with a full comms link into Nienaber 😜

                                          And this is the other problem, right? Nienaber looks like a puppet while Rassie is anywhere near the field. EDIT: or hooked up via FaceTime πŸ™‚

                                          Add in the constant invasion of the pitch by support staff - and I noticed the Wallabies Assistant Coaches have been out there a fair bit as well - and you're starting to get into Subbies Competition Rules where coaches can't enter the arena except during half time.
