I reckon Peyper was in line to ref our game before elbowphotogate
I'm delighted to get Nige again. I'm surprised Barnes didn't get the other game (World Rugby said the refs chosen were best of the best), but he will get the final I reckon if England don't beat us. Nige is a rugby man, who knows what fans want (a free-flowing game, decided by the players and not the ref). Yes, he has the odd call, but he is never biased, and never hasty with the cards.

AGree. Not complaining though, much prefer Owens who is only caught up in didn'tcomethroughthe-gate.
disappointed that Nick Berry not involved in the knockouts. Thought he's been refereee of the tournament.

So has Jaco had a slap on the wrist?, would have at least expected him as an Assistant
Certainly looks like that photo has resulted in a break.
Was a bit silly with Wales still in the comp.
Maybe when they get knocked out he will get a AR jobYou reckon that photo is real? He has been stood down? Could he be that stupid?
Serious questions. I really don't know.

In a statement, the governing body said: “World Rugby can confirm that the match officials selection committee did not consider Jaco Peyper for selection this weekend. Peyper recognises that a picture of him with Wales fans, which appeared on social media after the Wales versus France quarter-final, was inappropriate and he has apologised.”

Where has the fucking fun gone?
Although, I wonder if I’d be so flippant, were it an AB who had got the arse

I reckon I'd laugh. It was an idiot moment that deserves to be mocked (Vaamahina I mean). If Owens mocked Todd and his broken wing it'd be pretty funny.

yeah agree, I was thinking the same - if it was the forward ball on the last try he was mocking, it would be a shocker

@Bones said in 2019 Rugby World Cup:
@Crucial that's really sad.
Yeah, I get that there was nothing in it but considering he is paid to be impartial it wasn’t a clever look considering that team was still in the comp.
Doesn’t put any doubt on the decision but does cast an appearance of enjoyment that one team won over the other. Similar to the bad look of a ref low fiving a player during a game.
He may be back for the final. -

It's the right call.
Imagine a photo in 2007 of Barnes celebrating missing a forward pass with French fans, a big cheeky grin on his face.

That's a completely different context though isn't it? Peyper isn't celebrating getting an important call 100% wrong.
-
Peyper's job is to judge things impartially. Taking that elbow photo shows poor judgement, and could imply a lack of partiality.
World Rugby has enough stress around referring controversies, given how stupidly difficult/inconsistent the modern game is, they don't need this distraction on top of it.
Not surprised he got the arse.

Yeah, it's pretty shocking Garces is still there, let alone in charge of a match. He's the worst fucken ref at the cup alongside Raynal. WR just love throwing their fingers up eh.
I thought Garces was excellent in the QF, for what it's worth.

Nah, I think he bottled it massively early in the second half when Aus got close and were hot on attack. It's only when the score blew out that started refereeing the game properly.

Agreed. It's amazing how all the refs swallow the whistles in World Cup knockouts when its close. I hope the ABs are aware of this and modifying their play accordingly.

One potentially encouraging result of this is that teams have to play and score tries - or drop goals - instead of trying to milk penalties. The flipside is obviously that doing so becomes harder, because defending teams feel they're less likely to be penalised by pushing the boundaries.
For mine, this is why I think good starts and leading into the last 15-20 minutes is so crucial - with the way the referees are going so far in this tournament, I'd much rather be the team holding on to a lead than the team trying to chase one down.
