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

[Tooting Carmen]

Think he moved to England before he was a pro referee then got his qualifications via the RFU

I'm sure I remember him reffing some big matches involving the Irish provinces. Hmm...

 

[Atmavictu]

The money made with the weapons South Africa sold to Russia have been put to good use

 

[Tooting Carmen]

Can Wayne Barnes please stop calling the players by their first names? He is not their friend.

 

[ncurd]

They registered it as a tactical sub not an injury, so if Fourie gets injured he can come back

Is Fourie injured? Like have we seen anything real?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Wowowowow we have a game!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Wowowow
That's one of the best runs of the tournament

 

[AlRums]

How can they even hope to bring Bongi on? He went off injured? Surely that's it?

As said multiple times by the commentary he was declared a tactical replacement

 

[Ceteris]

Get in!!!

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

TMO is a jobsworth ewwwww

He's not wrong but I hate hearing his voice

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Is Fourie injured? Like have we seen anything real?

No, but if they've managed to register Bongi as not injured then it must just be he said/she said so if they want to sub Fourie they'll just sub him as an injury with no checking

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Mounga shows Marcus Smith how its done!

 

[Booboobang]

I so hope Earl can grow into anything like Savea

Personally I hope we move him to 7, the position savea is at his peak powers at only being moved to 8 to accommodate Cane.

 

[Rugbyfan564]

Jesus it so blatant.

Going to be arrests at some point in the future.

 

[Scotty]

They registered it as a tactical sub not an injury, so if Fourie gets injured he can come back

Never heard of this before? Do they get the choice? Why would they not always do that just incase.

 

[ncurd]

C'mon NZ, I just want them to win for this Bongi/Fourie nonsense which is cynical as blood gate in a bloody final.

DAMNIT!

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

JB vs DDA on the blindside is peak rugby

 

[Bada-Bing!]

What a pity.

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

Great spot. Poor, poor Ardie.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Oh ffssssss,

Right call but that was such a good try

 

[Herman the German]

Just let that try count for the beauty of the game.
