RWC Final: All Blacks v Springboks
-
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.

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.
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.

The difference in quality of kicking game between the two teams is night and day.
It’s the quality of the chase as much as the kicks, Jordan seems to jog after the ball

Cane was upright. He made connection with the head. The RC was the right decision given the directives, I’m afraid.
It was, but we are effectively sending players from the field for errors in judgement where they have missed their target, with no ill intent. I can't really think of another sport that does that and it hurts the spectacle.

Huge 40 mins coming up...
