Sam Cane, one good game in four years, better make him captain. That is why Foster can fuck off.
Tim please think of the Chiefs supporters.

@Machpants is that the first red card in a RWC final?

Yep.

Dumb that the ABs put themselves in this position. Thought it would come from SB though.
The game is fucked with the rules as is. Understand intent to protect the head but I would be just as irate if this happened to the Boks. Game ruined. So if we keep it close a moral victory? I say fuck it and sportsmanship and go postal. Not normally my response but I am filthy right now.

Ben Smith had the only card in RWC finals history before the first YC tonight

Sami, SW, Paps , SB 6, TW go 8 forwards
Pick n go
This is Petone into the wind -
SA are offering nothing. They ran it with intent once. Just have to play mistake free and disciplined rugby. Go thru the middle a little bit more.

@taniwharugby In the men’s RWC Final. An English woman got a RC in the women’s final last year.

I get that Cane should have been smarter. But it’s the lack of consistency that f&*ks me off. Similar has been seen in this tournament without it being upgraded to a red. So much of this seems subjective. And when the opposing team gets away with something of similar nature you realise the game is cooked. You just can’t have the pinnacle of world sport blighted by lottery-like decisions by unaccountable nobodies in back rooms. It’s a joke.

Looking at the red card in real time, it really looks like fuck all. Slowed down of course gives the ref no option. But its disappointing that the biggest game of the world cup is all about Barnes and the TMO.

DONT GO 7 BACKS

This is obviously massive pie in sky, but if by some miracle we pull this off who lifts the trophy? Surely not Cane.

With at least one obstruction in that play…
I don’t think our kicking game has been too bad. Need to get our chasers going though.
Keep putting pressure on their lineout, that is vulnerable.

@Rancid-Schnitzel The moral captain, Sam Whitelock.
