RWC Final - New Zealand v South Africa 29/10/23, 0800 NZDT

I'm not an ABs fan but I'm pulling for them now. Barnes & the TMO having a stinker. Makes me irrationally angry.

First yellow isn't a yellow. They didn't upgrade it (lol) because he just fell on the leg. Why was he off in the first instance then. Openly admitted he got a penalty which they kicked three from wrong. Red speaks for itself. Total madness.

Barnes has spent 16 years rehabilitating his reputation in the eyes of the Kiwis. Only to bugger all that up today.

When Cane gets cleared at the judiciary I may just lose my shit wrt TMO's in general & Foley in particular. Has ruined what could & should have been a classic.

In my book we're owed two 50/50 calls.

As a neutral Im not sure how Canes shot wasnt a red?

 

[KOB1987]

Well that has to be a red, Foley has set a precedent

 

[Scooter]

Kolisi yellow should probably be upgraded too.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Hopefully that's the first square-up...

Thought Kriel was dipping so YC yes but not Red.

 

[Bullrush]

That should be a straight red….

Yeah maybe... Cane had every opportunity to hit him lower...

 

[zer0]

Suspect it will just be a yellow.

 

[zer0]

Just needlessly rushing things there. Be interesting to see how Nche goes in the scrum without Mbonambi though.

Is that not a Red?

Esp after the call on Cane...

 

[zer0]

lol rekt

 

[KOB1987]

Ripper try!

Edit - maybe not. I did wonder how the hell he missed that though.

 

[zer0]

Of course.

 

[Scooter]

I have two words for you .... Richie
Mo'unga.

Edit: Alas no try because of knock on.

 

[Scooter]

That rip happened after the tackle was completed.

 

[KOB1987]

messy but that’ll do

 

[Scooter]

How was the rainbow pass from Jordie Barrett?

 

[zer0]

Brah. Why bring Smith off?

 

[zer0]

Has Beauden actually fielded any high kicks tonight? Surely getting deep into McKenzie nuclear option territory...
