[RWC 2023 Final] New Zealand v South Africa 28/10/23 20:00 BST

[Jimbo]

So falling onto is now punishable by a YC what a load of BS, it’s intentional and a red or it’s a rugby incident and we move on.

 

[Ospervat]

Jeez. Pollard! Aim between the sticks not for the sticks!!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Spicy, this

I think the logic is it's not the rolling that causes injuries, but legs being trapped and then being turned. However, rolling can be a legitimate tactic at the ruck so in order to avoid injuries you can roll, but you can't fall on the leg and trap it. I think it makes sense.

Can Wayne Barnes not just obtain citizenship of like Malta or so that he can ref basically a whole world cup?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

God that would've been a nice try

 

[ncurd]

God that was a unlucky/lucky bounce depending on which side you support.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Both SA and NZ showing legitimate ways kicking into the 22 can work rather than the brainless **** England do.

But all teams kick! God that cry annoys me there's both clever and stupid kicking and England usually do that latter.

And don't usually have penalty advantage when they do.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Come on that is a harsh penalty.

Or we give O'Keefe the honorary citizenship of South Africa for the beginning.

 

[Jimbo]

Very poor, he opens his arms wide clearly to show release.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

SA player on his knees gets so much as nudged in the neck by accident and is screaming to the ref instantly...

Also that's harsh.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

That's harsh

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Pollard is who the English media hope Farrell would be

 

[Tooting Carmen]

Will this be another tryless final?

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Smith sounding like he's about to give birth

 

[Horacito]

Pollard is who the English media hope Farrell would be

Probably Farrell himself

 

[Herman the German]

Will this be another tryless final?

New Zealand is trying hard to prove the opposite.

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

SA multiple times not supporting their weight in the turnovers.
