Was he wrong in his observation?
I've got to 1:06 in the SA whingefest and yes, yes he is.

South Africans online complaining

The best one I’ve seen , when refs ref in nz they should have their bank accounts checked

Tremendous irony coming from the gold watch country.

I made if further than you, and that was one of the m ost embarrassing things I have watched.
Firsdtly, as you point out, their hooker moves to create a new midline on EVERY SINGLE CLIP in the video. Dude's little straight lines never move and often don't even connect to the thrower as they wouldn't prove his point.
Second, imagine being an SA forward while this was happening and not being able to point it out to the AR or Ref - those newbies Kolisi, PSD and Etzebeth just let it happen? Weird!
The obstruction calls are even more laughable, like we are suppposed to just wave them through with a pat on the back.
I gave up at 4mins when the video turned to scrums, because:
a. I was bored; and
b. I am convinced that "dark arts" in the scrums are just made up by ex-fatties to try to confuse everyonme else into thinking that they are cleverer than they really are when all they really do is push and shove a bit before the ref takes a guess...sorry @pakman

) the latter certainly is!
