[QUOTE="Aspry, post: 592681, member: 70242"] Man, I prefer being thrashed 73-13 than losing like this.. I know we didn't play well this match (so did Australia) and you could say Ref wasn't so bad, but the truth is that I feel robbed. What do you want me to say? Yeah he didn't make a lot of mistakes but he failed on crucial situations and being a one point differene match is kinda a big deal. If we don't beat Australia in Rosario (Assuming we're gonna lose against All Blacks of course) this tournament would be a failure, I'm tired of 60 min performances and moral victories. I disagree with you on this. Back in Mendoza in the whole Senatore-Etzebeth incident when the Ref asked for TMO it was showed that Etzebeth first made a high tackle and then he reacted not one but twice punching Senatore. When the crowd noticed that, it started to reprove the South African attitude by whistling... Then, after the Ref saw the TMO Felipe Contepomi asked about Etzebeth's reaction and the Ref told him "Oh sorry, I wasn't looking at it" :rolleyes: ffs he supposed to watch the whole tape. Yet Etzebeth (unlike Senatore) wasn't cited nor disciplined. I don't think that Ref decision had something to do with the crowd reaction. [/QUOTE]
