This is so embarrassing, the world will be laugh at us now. Booking a substandard hotel is bad enough
We didn't book it. The Frogs did it for us.

Yeah, I didn't read the full article. Thought he was referring to the eve of the final and not the French game, and thought we had booked it. My mistake.

The hotels are all sorted by the host nation. But ABs should scout them out beforehand and make sure everything is up to scratch, but they obviously didn't do their due diligence in this case

I'm afraid I agree with @MiketheSnow.
After my initial indignation I've taken it to mean he didn't see the replay and explained what he (thought he) saw.
Not that he apologised because he got it wrong and had subsequently seen the error of his ways.
i.e., "Sorry, didn't see the replay." Full stop.
"I thought you stayed on him, I didn't see you come off enough"HOWEVER the decision was still wrong and I don't see why the TMO can't intervene on that scoring play but can (not that he could really) on a knock on.
The TMO can't rule on more than 2 phases before a try is scored, but that didn't stop him. What a farce rugby is right now
This was mentioned on the Aotearoa Rugby Pod that it is a guideline, not a rule, the 2 phase thing
Based on what? It's clearly written in the protocol how many phases for general play and that no phase restriction exists for foul play. If it was to be a guideline, it would state such, or they'd use an adjective such as few.

This is just what was mentioned on podcast. I’ve read the protocol now and maybe the first section titled ‘Guiding Principles’ is where this misunderstanding came from? But the 2 phase thing is clearly not a guideline as they mentioned.

If you want to promote consistency of performance you institute protocols and hard rules. Not guidelines. Amateurish conduct by WR as usual

Looking at the Frizzel "incident" again, Steven Kitsoff smashes him in the side of the head with his arm. Of course, the TMO completely missed this and YCed Frizzel for falling over. What a farken joke.

I felt that it could have easily been ruled a rugby contact incident. No penalties, play on

Squidgy has done a video on the final.
41 minutes long?! Yeah nah. Guy needs to do 5 minute videos.

The first thing WR has done well.

Did the sanctimonious piston wristed gibbon have a go at Frizell again like he does in every video featuring the ABs?

A bit like publicly stating “we have a no dickheads rule” and then picking a convicted domestic abuser.

My RWC jersey just came in. A big FUCK YOU to Canada once again for taxing us up the arse when it comes to importing goods you can't buy here. Fucking joke. Anyways, normally I wouldn't buy a RWC jersey so soon after a loss, and as gutted as I am, I mean, this one really hurts, I am more accepting of it in the way the TMO had an influence and also, I gave us no shot of getting passed the QF. I bought the performance jersey. Still not a fan of the collar but fuck, it's a nice jersey. The ferns are very subtle and the material feels really nice on. Stitching looks strong but a bit abrasive but finally getting a god look at it, very very nice. Thank god I ordered a size up. There's no way I would fit my standard labeled size.

It should have been. I've not seen an penalty and a YC for something so innocuous before. Ever. I wonder if Ardie went down and squealed like a little bitch and cries foul at every ruck African Jesus may have been shown red and 6 weeks.

I don't know what Foley's qualifications are, but I don't believe he's a test ref. Crazy to be in that position of power
-
Worth noting that it was not Foley that upgraded Sam's yellow to a red. Yes, he is an annoying pedantic piston wristed gibbon that helped ruin a game of rugby, but he isn't to blame for the inconsistency between the two captains' cards. We don't actually know who did that.
