RWC: Wales v France (QF 3)
-
At least the 4th World Cup in a row with a controversial quarterfinal
2007 - obvious
2011 - Bryce Lawrence in the Boks/Wallabies quarter (Bryce couldn't referee in South Africa after that I believe?)
2015 - Craig Joubert and Wallabies/Scotland finale
2019 - Wales/France. -
Check out the video under 'red card' (Fekitoa on Ireland), and then explain why Wales didn't cop one as well?
Edit: link to Stuff for the video -partial only, sorry

Wales went down to 14 men against France in the 2011 SF but could have, and should have, won.
They played dumb rugby and lost.

If Wales win this they won’t win the SF
Not on this performanceThis performance won’t matter one iota if they win.
You’ve just gotta get there and start again.
Wales have very little chance of beating the Boks they can’t handle pressure and won’t handle the Boks up front one sided game coming

I guess Peyper won't referee a game in France in a near future after this shot. He would be "persona non grata".
Hearing that it's apparently photoshopped? Weirdly massive arm, hand on the shoulder is lower res than rest of the photo?

Still think it's legit.
It's not surprising to a see a referee with disproportionate biceps when they regularly are raising on arm for penalties much more than the other.

Stupid move from Peyper. World Rugby will probably give him the Final now.
