    "Engrossing" and "an arm wrestle" were a couple of cliches that the commentators could have genuinely used for that game.

              The reds turn up with their best performance in ages and nearly win a final in NZ and that's the takeaway?

                      Yeah, that was uncalled for from McDermott. Silly thing to say, would have been even if it really were the case, but I don't see how the Reds can be angry with Gardiner at all

                        That is fucked up.
                        A spectacular level of self-delusion. I actually feel a little jealous... to be that ignorant must truly be bliss.

                          Well it hard to argue with an 8 teams final after that game.

                            Yep. Can't say it was the best refereeing ever. But also didn't feel like throwing things at the TV because of it either - it seemed to average out.

                              There's a generation that had their formative years coincide with winning a RWC and holding the Bledisloe. The return to the long term mean has had them blaming referees and calling other teams cheats ever since.

                                "Some of the call didn't go our way" Meaning: "that's the game and these things can go either way"

                                "Some questionable calls tonight" Meaning: "I'm a dickhead"

                                          I don't think Stevenson was that bad. He was brillant in attack and his kicks are powerful. The O'Connor's 50-22 was not his fault : 1) the kick was very good 2) he was playing as a left wing and DMac was the fullback, so it was the latter to cover deep.
