As Canes said I hit O instead of P when saying how I thought things were strom in a teacup. I often do that, don't really tend to concetrate when replying on forums, as I admit to usually doing it while watching tv etc. I not a huge internet fan, only really come into rugby forums and tend to just type as quick as my clumsy fingers will do it and never check.

mate, it's how memes start. Someone on here (Snowy?) wound up being assumed to be a serial killer with bodies in the basement. It's the way it is; lean into it and take the W.
Ouma's has a certain ring to it

@nzzp Oh hell mate, I got no probs with it at all, I even started thing it now. I don't get upset, hell I take very little serious in forums anyway. Hell if I got upset when anyone picked up my mistakes I would be a mess and worry about someone having a look at how a mate does his job!!

Sounds like someone needs to broaden their palate a bit more.

It's always interesting to see which ref got appointed for the other big pool games.
England v Argentina - Mathieu Raynal (FFR)
South Africa v Scotland - Angus Gardner (RA)
South Africa v Ireland - Ben O'Keeffe (NZR)
Wales v Australia - Wayne Barnes (RFU)
Ireland v Scotland - Nic Berry (RA) -
Well if anything it's introduced delicious Boer sausages to a brand new group of consumers. That's a clear win in my view.

astonished that the shoulder charge was interpreted initially as a tackle. Right outcome in the end.
Edit: and now waiting on Billy V - could be tonight NZT

A common apologist argument online is that the panel is independent so the IRB have no control. I can't believe that is the case, surely they have the power to set the parameters of how these panels operate, and give guidance re-decisions (not case by case, but they must set some guidelines). All the outrage could have been avoided if the panel had done the right thing in the first place. Another own goal from the drop kicks at World Rugby.

@canefan amd they do, different grad offensives have starting points and the panel has to justify any reduction....its baffling how the original one came to their decision! good on WR for coming in and sorting, even if it was only due to the almost universal outcry

You always look better if it appears that action was your idea!! The way they let it play out, it makes WR look like they only took action in response to the outrage
