@machpants I was going to object to imagining Keohane explode then I read this
The Springboks surpass the All Blacks in terms of World Cups because their three titles have come from two less tournaments. The Boks, because of sporting isolation, did not play in the inaugural 1987 and 1991 World Cups, won by the All Blacks and Australia respectively. -

Boring stat
Not really a surprise that one. The SA defence at the moment is probably the best I have ever seen.

Can we steal their defence coach?

Pathetic, should have been done that weekend. But at least he got done, the turd

So I just spent two hours reading the decision.
What an absolute clusterfuck. Everyone is going to be unhappy with this. They basically found Erasmus guilty of lynching Nice Berry and then giving him a slap with a wet rag.
I hope to go into it in more detail, but the punishment is too light while the the factual findings are, largely, over the top.

... and the worst thing is, on the face of it he achieved what he set out to - to influence the refereeing teams! I hate that our game has become a sport where influencing the ref through media and other pressure is as important as actually playing.

@nzzp an open door for whataboutism that I am just going to walk past...
It's wrong however does it, and I agree Hanson had a poor record of this as well.

A ban from a sport that isn't played in the SH during those two months..? Not much of a consequence is it?
-
What effect will it have?
I believe the practice of pre-game meetings between referees and teams was stopped because it turned into a shit fight of accusations.
Now this.
My first thought when the video was released, and not watching it but looking at the commentary around it:
"World Cup Champions or World Class Victims?"

World rugby really needs to address this and the larger problem of referee abuse and influencing. There needs to be meaningful sanction or we’ll be heading further down the soccer route.
