Carley's reffing is he?

I think he's been pretty good!

He has been good today; I think the last pen was right; but the late tackle call was bullshit

sockwithaticket wrote: ↑Sat Oct 02, 2021 11:49 am Again, I agree with Carly. Shooting out with one hand like that is commonly a pen up here.

De Allende is already at near maximum extension when making contact with the ball, he's not in a realistic position to gather it, he's simply being disruptive.


Mehrtens is just being a cranky old man.

It’s a knock on. Not a penalty. You NH types are dicks.

If you knock the ball on wwhile making a genuine attempt to catch the ball then, yeah, no pen. If you do it in a way where re-gathering was never on the cards, you're deliberately interfering with possession in a way that kills the ball. Penalty totally warranted.

Wiese in trouble here

Getting ugly

If this penalty gets over turned because we’re being dicks then I’ll lose my shite.

Fuck you saffa cunts! how dare you play great rugby and challenge us like this?!
haha what a great test! Thank you Boets

Jesus Christ What was that Wiese?
Fucking idiot, lucky that wasn’t a penalty.

But then we concede one anyway. Oh well, that’s the game.

Stupid pen from Steyn. No effort to roll at all. Should be easy to roll given his shape

Now that is a dogsh*t pen. Where's the ruck for Steyn to be interfering with?

Frans cant argue that one. he'd have to have won the ball before they hit the ground.

Kind of looks like he did....

I think he thought he had and on replay, he might have a case. For me, just as much case for a pen against Mac for the same.

It was a soft one and I'd be fien with it not being given, but I can also see why it was.

Jordy still kicking??

This’ll be the one that Joggie misses…

He’s been kicking well. Don’t change it.

Nicely done JB

The ref is correct. The laws are stupid.

There is a difference between running an attacking line and a defending line - DDA was full on attack. Laws don't see that, but refs can.

Repeated infringements on the line by the laws mean at least a warning and then a yellow, but the All Blacks never received a warning.

Ref should have chosen to either ref to the feeling of the match, or the letter of the law. They picked and chose between those in this second half.

Nice....!!!!

"springboks want to go quickly" is not a phrase we hear very often

Elton > Pollard

Shit. Dick Mo misses the line and it swings back to Sefrica. Erm, what was that penalty for?

Boks should have played advantage there. Waste more time.

Ref taking centre stage here…..

Superb game

Sympathise with this bit. ABs been cynical in their own 22 but I do wonder if SA should have turned the screw by going for the 5/7.

JB with another chance.

Play by the laws then, not a lot he can do if you don’t

they dont want to show a replay of that pen...

Hopefully the win.

Now that one is retarded by Mostert.

Christ. I thought he pushed that wide. My heart dropped out of my arse for a second there.

Shit he did it!!

That came around nicely. Inital trajectory looked like he'd fucked it.

Had zero effect. Webber had the ball in 1/2 a sec. Just let them play on

Time wasting NZ

Can opt for free kick?

Scrum needs to hold if not.
