[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 737753, member: 39190"] On the first count the game past does have bearing on this thread. I'm not disuting any Argentine try, even the forward pass one. I am all for letting the game go but then let it go for both sides. Why go to the TMO what felt like evry time SA crossed but never for Argentina for instance. So I'm complaiing about the 'non-calls' like the ones I mentioned earlier and that Creevy and co stole many balls while never supporting their own weight. IE I was frustrated at the ref not giving some fundamentals of the game the time of day and not always for both teams. That said Argentina won and did work for that win and can only be given credit for adapting to the ref incomparably better than us. You got off well early, rattled us effectively, harrassed us and kept it up throughout. You were accurate i your handling, accurate and clever in shifting the ball before contact the way you did. You are full value for the win and I don't want to take away from that as a competitive Argentina (which youu have been throughout) is good for the RC and rugby in general. The ref did have a **** poor gme though and SA were never able to get any sort of momentum because of it and that the level of refereeing is better at a 3rd tier comp in the Curry Cup is better than the supposed pinacle of the sport is not good for rugby though and is where my frustrations creep in. We saw it in SR, we see it now. I just wnat some consistency in refereeing. The sport is supposed to be pro. [/QUOTE]
