So the top refs are Barnes, peyper, BOk and Raynal. The Georgian is nowhere as far as I can see, not even a touch judge. I’m a bit surprised.
-
@Billy-Tell who knows they may be holding back Pearce or the Georgian for a semi final.

compared to the rest of you fuckwits - who can't organize a piss-up in a brewery
Now if there was one insult directed towards Fern posters that was highly unlikely, my vote would be on this one. Not saying it would be a very civil piss-up, mind.

Me too
He's been excellent and is neutral (no skin in the game) going forward

Hope so

I have friends absolutely gutted that we have Barnes. Grudges or real concern? I’m not unhappy, but thought I’d dig out the list, here it is - make of it what you will

Ireland have the same players playing the same way. We lost that game by 10 points, and this AB side is more than 10 points better than June 2022.
Do they. have the same selection of players this time round?

Been to 3 of the 4 indoor ones at Cardiff Rugby Club
Been excellent

Barnes, good ref, but does allow a bit of a free for all at the breakdown. Help us? Hinder us? Who knows
-
@Derm-McCrum see, exactly the same players...
TBF I was mainly going starting 15 final test
