2022 World Sevens Series

Annnnd penalises Baker for his hands touching the ground after Australian joining players were horizontal the whole game 😂 right on the buzzer, how convenient

[ARHS]

Bizarre refereeing. NZ players looked a bit mystified at the series of calls against them. Best game I have seen from Brady Rush though.

Nz v Sa in the 5th place playoff now

Currently 7-5 to SA

[Duluth]

That’s an interesting way to bomb a try

Which is usually how every other team looks when NZ or RSA get a tongue massage on their taint from the refs.

It'll even out eventually, I guess... If it keeps going like that, maybe 2030?

[ARHS]

@nta did you watch at all?

[ARHS]

@duluth placing it on your own leg inches from the dead ball line might be more understandable if there was a defender in the frame.

Good kick off by Bokke and they hit the lead

No.

I assume it'll be the usual haphazard and borderline decisions you get in a game of 7s, which as I've mentioned favour teams like RSA and NZ slightly more often than they don't from an opposition seat.

[ARHS]

Young NZ team did pretty well overall. Rush and Tangitau much improved but defensive errors costly. Maybe they can work on adapting to the contrasting rulings on contact point penalties between referees.

[ARHS]

@nta watch the replay and compare to other matches at the event.

[Duluth]

Upset possible in the final

Arg beating Fiji 17-5 at HT

[Duluth]

Wow. Argentina win 29-10

And it was their first title in 14 years when their current coach was a player.

I'll tell you all the same things you tell me when I point out the ref was shit:

Have a sook.
It won't change the result.
Maybe be good enough to take the ref out of the equation.
Look at the scoreboard.
Etc etc etc

I mean, to be judged as having a sook for simply saying the ref is shit by someone who's been exited from the forum more than once for losing his shit annnnnd didn't even watch the game... seems pretty easy to brush off 😉
