Eben's Uber just turned up

@MiketheSnow said in RWC: South Africa v Italy (Pool B):

Both should have gone

Agreed! If anything, 17 looked the more guilty party than 1.

Also, no idea why Wayno had to consult the others refs, it happened right in front of him after the whistle at a range of about 2m. And even then he only got half the decision right.

Rugby reffing is an absolute clown show, embarrassing.

Huh? Wouldn't you wanna check you're getting it right with something like that? I know I would. Sometimes others or the camera see something different...

[MiketheSnow]

How did Kolbe get away with that?

[MiketheSnow]

Fuck my days SA

[MajorPom]

Yeah, no problems with Barnes checking before redding.

Still no idea how both didn't go.

Yeah totally agree on both counts

[Stargazer]

I think both Andrea Lovotti and Nicola Quaglio will get an appointment with the Judicial Committee.

[NTA]

Both props should have seen red.

Both will get hefty bans.

[Stargazer]

SA may be well ahead and win this game, but I can't say they've been convincing. It's just too messy.

Not exactly unlocking the defence. Kicking with good effect.

.

At least mid-range entry point of 10 weeks; if the usual deductions apply, they'll get a ban of 5 games.

The high tackle?

[NTA]

South Africa aren't unlocking the defence because their centres can't actually link or pass very well, only run hard at the line.

Kolbe ankle issues

Yep. That put the Italian in to touch

[NTA]

Half ton opportunity goes begging with 3 missed kicks.

Italy will need to send for more props. They'll be missing 3 come the All Blacks game.

[Stargazer]

That's it. I've seen better games.

Yeah, I guess. But then he still made a hash of it, with zero sanction to #17.
