@TeWaio Slippery slope there. There was nothing wrong with the French pass that Etzebeth slapped down. Etzebeth took the risk, not the French passer. He got away with it. I imagine he wouldn't if Wayne Barnes was reffing

I thought he had his hand in front of ball and was trying to reef/knock it backwards, and that was why I thought BOK got it right. I definitely didn't see it as a knock down. But then again I haven't ben back to study it again, as I not sure I would get anything out of it.

Again, knock DOWN is not illegal.

Couldn't agree more mate, I never really thought O'Keefe got call wrong.
I can't believe anyone thinks it is.

The difference between taking your chances and not.

Doesn't show, that like SA in their first game against us this year, the French couldn't catch a high ball. Killed them and 3 tries.

@Machpants the ball will be like soap on Saturday night and the wind will be swirling. England need to pepper the South African back 3 too. Let's see how well the Boks deal with a high kick barrage.

3-2 errors, a card each, nearly balances out?

Tellingly, there's no actual evidence of WR admitting to mistakes.

Perfect timing IMHO

I doubt it but would be a popular move by some Kiwis
Was this WR refereeing report a leak or a public release?

Alleged leak, no proof. Might well be fake
