It's the Kumar Dharmasena moment of this world cup.

@barbarian I didn't say it did, I was talking generally, not specific to yesterday.
I think we are not too far apart in thinking, we want it, but will rarely be, nothing wrong with wanting it to be great

Maybe so. But it WAS a knock on.

i dont think anyone is arguing that, were just talking about the use of TMO and things like this seems quite clearly stated...and yet not followed
personally i think the knock on was a direct result of the penalty action and so should be considered part of that and so play on under advantage...but thats not the rules

There has been a discipline and or cards issue for some time.
I'd say there's a clear subconscious bias. IMO a capable TMO wouldn't have said the threshold was made for a bloke that has someone turn into him, and not for someone that runs 10 metres into the face of someone else.
I also take umbrage at the discretionary use of "absorbing".

I know this has been brought up before but one thing is those players (one SA prop in particular) who get down so ridiculously low its virtually impossible to tackle them without making contact to the head. The tackler has to literally slide along the ground. Its effectively inviting a shoulder or arm to the head. How tf is that making the game safer?

you meant to answer my post?
A I think there is a discipline/card or at least playing to the ref problem with this side for awhile but on the other hand
B I'm not very happy with the TMO or the amount of consistency in the cards/penalties of the RWC final (i.e. I think I agree with you) -

yes unless foul play (any time before game restarts)...

I hadn’t seen that article but the “RIP rugby” is reflected in my comment above. Re the try - every time I have been watching with my wife and the comms say “great try”, he’s in” etc, she says “or is it?” Or “or is he?” She’s right and it makes it very difficult to get excited when someone gets over the line because it may very well not result in the score changing. Anyway I’ll shut up about my former lover now, but the grief is real.
-
Regarding the Reason article, what exactly do the rules say about how and when the TMO can intervene? And how far after a try ruled as such can check back on knock-ons, forward passes etc? Because the way this code is going, I can foresee these tinpot frustrated schoolmasters leafing back to the Middle Ages to prove their points. Honestly, where is the transparency here? It’s a clown show. (Apologies, just saw BooBoo’s clarification. Seems we really were robbed in that case). Replay next Saturday?
