@canefan Not if we play SA in the Final.

Would hope / expect that it would be Nige in that case.

[Bovidae]

Here we go:

[Crucial]

I can roll with that. Looks fine for the semi.

Trouble is that it is definitely lining up either Barnes or Poite for the Final. My guess is a farewell pressie to Barnes.

Why not Owens? Nothing wrong with Barnes. In fact I would take Barnes Third after Owens and the Aussie bloke.

[No Quarter]

I'm amazed we've got Owens again, was sure we'd get a Frenchie

I'd quite happily take Barnes for the final because that means we are in it.

It won't be Poite, but Garces if a Frenchie.

O'Keeffe? He's been shit too.

Graham Hughes has been the best TMO so I am very surprised he isn't one of the Wales-SA officials.

The games I've seen I thought he was quite good. Not perfect, but most refs miss things. Probably penalised because he wasn't a car waving maniac during the pool phase.

Easily. Understands physics, doesn't get flustered.

So has Jaco had a slap on the wrist?, would have at least expected him as an Assistant

Certainly looks like that photo has resulted in a break.
Was a bit silly with Wales still in the comp.
Maybe when they get knocked out he will get a AR job

I think his non selection anywhere suggests he got a slap across the face.

[Godder]

Owens is fine, he at least won't get stage fright.

You reckon that photo is real? He has been stood down? Could he be that stupid?

Serious questions. I really don't know.

Yeah, it's pretty shocking Garces is still there, let alone in charge of a match. He's the worst fucken ref at the cup alongside Raynal. WR just love throwing their fingers up eh.

[Bovidae]

@Bones Alain Rolland is selecting refs in his own image.

Peyper getting punished for being a good ref. They must think Jackson is excellent!

I thought Garces was excellent in the QF, for what it's worth.

Well yeah but you're probably coloured by your teams performance. Or more likely your coach's.

[barbarian]

Of course, but wouldn't that lead me to think he was shit?
