    So the old adage of " there's no point whinging, the ref isn't going to change his mind" no longer holds true?

    I'm fucking seething. That was unprecedented, and not only that, wrong. To use a replay to change your mind on a penalty is bad enough, but to compound it by getting the decision wrong is unfathomable.

    I'm guessing we will take this as a loss and they almost take it as a win ,

    That's the part that sucks the most , it's more of a loss to us than them

    @mariner4life yeah it is frustrating alright, try to teach kids the ref is right even when wrong, add in the number of BI players that were at the ref quite alot of the game too, WR needs to stamp that shit out, this aint soccER

    Like the fight game, don't leave it in the judges hands.

    While a glib comment like that may sound witty there are numerous fights where boxers have been hit after the bell or nut shots have gone unpunished and heavily altered the fight.

    So yes, don't leave it in the judges hands but if a referee allows a flurry of punches after the 7th round bell sounds which alters the fight - the response shouldn't be "you had 7 rounds to finish him, shut up and take it".

    Not glib.

    You're clutching.

    Yep - Read referred to it as a loss in his post-game interview.
    Fitzy just gave a Lion "congratulations".

    Ioane didn't give any reason last week that he would have done better than Julian Savea. Savea had a great first half.

    Apart from that, it seemed to me that the ABs, esp. the young ones, were a bit nervous, over-excited etc, which led to too many handling errors.

    I dunno.. Ioane would've caught the ball when Jules bombed a try opportunity.. Jules looked good cos they actually passed him the ball..

    I couldn't keep up with all the knock ons.. But it was the experienced guys that I noticed make errors..
    A bit harsh on the young guys..

    Are there any rules in regards to TMO use for that. What caused him to go to the TMO. P.s it's 15-0 Jag over Waratahs, makes me feel a bit better.

    Gatland a good not great coach. Fostered a great atmosphere. Should have lost the series 3-0. ABs choked

    I'm unhappy with that decision however it should never have come to that. We can only blame ourselves. Credit to the Lions for their D and good goal kickers.

    See this is the sort of arrogance I can't stand. Expecting the All Blacks to be up and have "put the game away". They're not robots. They make errors. They stuff up. All Blacks have been doing that since Adam wore the silverfern.

    It's disappointing that something so clear cut was not ruled as it should've been even after being reminded of it by the All Black captain.

    But sometimes it does come down to that last few moments because the way the game has gone brings it to that type of scenario.

    Disappointing but it's only a game. Both sides deserve credit for doing things that created pressure for the other. Both forward packs were superb. The backs for both were very up and down.

    Stop it

    I've spent countless words defending your right as a great (yes "great") AB halfback.

    You've earned the right to just about any indiscretion due to the 96 Springbok series alone. You smashed your body up to my great pleasure for nigh on a decade, and I can't appreciate that enough.

    But, despite what the sky social media "executives" tell you...

    STOP talking to us like we're dumb, blind sensitive fuckwits who can't recognise a spade when we see one.

    Show some class and less apologies and ridiculous justin-fications

    Great player in black though

    If that's the article I read the other day - jeez, the guy sounds a cock, doesn't he? In court - his testimony/defence consisting of "I drink lots, you know, get it down ya, love it geezer"

    Saveas work rate was way higher than Ioanes but the drop ball and poor support of Laumape were awful.
