[RWC2023] Fiji vs Georgia (30/09/2023)

Watercloset's still going on, isn't she..?

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Not a bad game, shame that terrible call cancelled Georgia's try because they deserved more than a LBP

 

[Ragey Erasmus]

Daft decision to kick at the end, they didn't look in a position to win the foot race.

 

[Cruz_del_Sur]

Damn, that was close. Cant help feeling bad for the Georgians.

 

[AlRums]

Well it's now confirmed, Dickson and Carley worst referees of this tournament, followed closely by Raynal and Peyper

Think it's the only thing he could do really, defenders were blocking a clean pass inside (though I'd have still tried it tbh) and if he'd kept hold he'd have been dragged into touch

Looked like he should have slowed and ran back towards his support when it was clear he wouldn't win the leg race rather than drift further and further away from his support. Easy to say as a viewer obviously but you'd think when keeping possession is crucial, you don't run away from your support.

Damnation! Gilt edged chance to pinch it. Slightly better from Georgia, but its been so disappointing from them this tournament.

So even if the Aussies get a BP win tomorrow they are eliminated due to head to head with Fiji. At least they don't have to hang around another week.

Absolutely no-one could have seen that coming.

Dickson must be the worst referee in this WC! So many headshots missed from the Fijians and that try from Georgia was never ever forward!! They love killing hopes for T2 nations, disgusting! Rugby will never grow like this!

It was actually Claire Thomas.

It was actually Claire Thomas.

Yeah my bad. There's no difference in standards between the two, though

True, Watercloset is the one going on in the studio.

The great Welsh centre Tom Shanklin.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Stays a yellow card!

******* joke of a sport this is

The great Welsh centre Tom Shanklin.

I'll be polite and merely suggest he's no Jiffy Davies (let alone an Eddie Butler, who was no Bill McLaren...)

Head on head, no dip, never legal, dubious wrap, high degree of force, but apart from that, play on...

Plays for Fiji and they're the current darlings of the tournament though so

 

[Rysie]

So what happened when Georgia takes that penalty on the line with a quick take, and then when they knocked on, ref then regives the penalty??

Huge step by Georgian to his left into the figi player
