RWC Final: All Blacks v Springboks
-
The one thing that I don't think we should let the coaching team and players off with is our poor discipline. We all knew this was a problem and has been a big problem over the last few years, so why have they not fixed it? Two yellows against Ireland and the cards today in the two biggest games of the year is simply unforgivable.

I fucking hope Foster and Ryan come out and throw sour grapes.
I seriously hope they won't.
I fucking hope they do. We've been coping shit from fluffybunnies like Ireland, moaning and whinging, but fuck it. They got some real shit calls. If that were SA losing, the stadium would have been burned to the ground but now.
Nah won't change the result. The time to whinge, in today's culture, is to whine before the game to effect the ref
I know it won't change the result. But why should they lie down and cop that shit?

What does it achieve other than making you look like sour grapes whingers
ABs did phenomenally well to create enough chances to win but couldn't take them.

I have no problem with the outcome of either captain's card. Clear difference based on the framework and mitigation.
Can you elaborate further ? How was Canes harsher than Kolisis ? ( i missed part of the latters as I was getting my third helping of bacon and eggs )
Cane was upright, with reasonable force, direct contact. No mitigation.
Kolisi had contact through the body, lowered himself a little, and the head contact was almost incidental like a whiplash.

Fair enough. They looked about as harsh as eachothers to my ( untrained ) eye.
Nisbo thought so too.

Yeah, look at Ireland, fuck all cards. We average more then one a game. Even when winning against Argentina, or playing fucking Namibia

@ACT-Crusader said in RWC Final: All Blacks v Springboks:
Boks unlucky to score a try down the right side too if not for a foot in touch and knock on.
Did you see Smith dragged into the scrum that started that movmeent? Would the TMO go back for that if they scored? Ah, the big questions in life
@nzzp yeah as I said above, I find this aspect most frustrating, In general play the TMO Will ignore knock ons (Faf did one that Barnes saw and called ok) forward passes etc...but if a try is scored he scours the game to find one to scrub it out.
Either call all or none, cant pick and choose which to ignore, why is one infringements more worthy of calling than another?
I mean Barnes saw that knock by Ardie, said it went back, let it go, so TMO has over ruled the ref (yes with the correct call) maybe justbhave spider cam and 3 refs sit in a room full of cameras and the whistle over over the loudspeaker...
I realise the game.would be even more stop start, but maybe need to go back to the days of the.ref asking for the input and they can only intervene on foul play.

Reminds me of that game when in SA when the TMO made a correct design but disregarded protocol. Now the balance has really tipped too far

Well in Ardie's case it tipped slightly off his hand, Barnes missed, then went forward off his knee afterwards - that's what Barnes called not forward

Or it could change the way the TMO is involved.

Commiserations guys. The ABs showed what class they are.
Congratulations enjoy your day
You should all be proud of your boys. Pushed us all the way despite never getting the rub of the green.
I'm hugely proud. The forwards in particular were immense. Considering the start, the cards, the conditions, to fight back and finish like that was an incredible performance
So close!
We made you work for it!

Fuck work for it. That game was in the balance until Barnes put us all out of our collective misery.
That’s why we respect you, and, I hope, why it’s returned.

@sparky said in RWC Final: All Blacks v Springboks:
Cane was upright. He made connection with the head. The RC was the right decision given the directives, I’m afraid.
It was, but we are effectively sending players from the field for errors in judgement where they have missed their target, with no ill intent. I can't really think of another sport that does that and it hurts the spectacle.

Rugby is a funny game.
We won the set piece. Had more ball, more carries, they made like 2 and a half the tackles we did. Made linebreaks. And we just couldn't win.

Our outside backs conceded 16 turnovers - theirs conceded five. I think that's the nub of where we lost it.
