That level of whinging is undignified. All involved should be ashamed to have participated in that.
If it was in reverse unsure how I would feel. I think more inclined to blame the player for just ignoring the ref's warning
i know exactly how this would have gone had Mo'unga been the guilty party
The Cantabs would have been piling in to Raynal hard out
The Auckland guys would have been piling in to Mo'unga
Half of everyone else would have blamed Foster. The other half would have blamed a Ioane brother.

@mariner4life some of us would be saying it wouldn't have happened if savea was playing at 7
-
@mariner4life Deans, you forgot to blame Deans!

there isn't a number small enough to reflect just how few fucks i have to give about anything Peter Fitzsimons has to say about any topic at all

So the Wobs have launched an official complaint about Raynal. Did they launch a complaint against Nick White's dive?
All evidence points to Raynal being correct and justified as well as providing opportunity to stop the call happening.
What do RA think they are going to get from this?Foley now saying the ABs had influence on the ref to change the call.

So he could hear the ABs but not the ref?
Ignoring his own teammates yelling and gesturing to him right in earshot?
I’m starting to get Foley and Foster confused due to a similarity in buck passing traits. -

@Joans-Town-Jones Reaction to your post:
Foley now saying the ABs had influence on the ref to change the call.
Sounds like a conspiracy theory. Did I really need to explain that?

Even if that’s the case, who cares.
How many halfbacks are waving their arms and yelling at the ref when there is a delay in getting the ball into a scrum by their opposite number.
How many players in a lineout are yelling and throwing their arms in the air when there is a delay by the opposition hooker to throw the ball into a lineout.

i really think I, and maybe others, would have more sympathy if he took any responsibility, if he came out with
"yeah, i was trying to take as long as im allowed, looking at it now i should have kicked is sooner..."
then id be happy to talk about how rare the call is and stuff...but if they're determined to say the ref was 100% wrong and blame him for everything....thats weak

I’m starting to get Foley and Foster confused due to a similarity in buck passing traits.None of their story makes any sense. It is my genuinely held belief that Foley is a liar and doesn't have the intestinal fortitude to own up to the error.
And then there's the little issue that the winning try won the match, not the freekick.

The was an article I saw somewhere that pointed out that the kick was never going to be the last play and given how Oz had already cocked up once after taking the lead it was by no way a done deal.
Also pointed out that at the end of the first half, when down to 13, they also pushed the refs patience at a level be dropout and were warned twice before kicking.
Played with fire and got burned.
It wouldn’t surprise me if, after the first half incident, there were further words from the ref which got shrugged off. He certainly pointed out after the game that they now know he will actually whistle if they take the piss. -

@Crucial Not sure if there's any confirmation if it was defying what the ref asked but also the taking of the quick conversion after Kellaway's try from the Foley pass.
I think @booboo watched that on Spidercam and said he clearly told Foley to wait and he was ignored.
Either Foley is deaf as a post or has zero reason to complain if he has acted that arrogantly toward the ref all game.

@NTA said in Bledisloe 1:
Agree with Nige.
Now, can we pan all the referees who can't count 5 seconds after "use it"?
Was it the MARC ELVs back in the day that really cracked down on the halfback clearing it “immediately” after the ref said use it. I thought it was one of the better developments.
Now we are back to snakes and all sorts of foot rolling. It’s a massive blight on the game.
