    I think he'll do the ref in if he meets him ...

    All because we've been denied the chance to get raped by NZ

    I don't understand why he wasn't permitted to consult the video ref for the decision. Surely if you're not sure who knocked the ball forward / back is reason enough to ask for help? That video ref was a joke anyway. It was him who contacted the ref about the so called deliberate handball in first half. Where was he when Scotland player was taken out the game before the ball went out for the line out which led to the penalty?

    I agree with you on handball decision in first half,dreadful and cost Scotland.There's some ruling on what the TMO can decide and unfortunately that last minute decision doesn't come under that rule but they will review it!

    “It is important to clarify that, under the protocols, the referee could not refer to the television match official in this case and therefore had to rely on what he saw in real time. In this case Law 11.3(c) should have been applied, putting Welsh onside. The appropriate decision, therefore, should have been a scrum to Australia for the original knock-on.”


    Gosper confirmed that the role of the TMO would be reviewed after the tournament but that the type of incidents which can be reviewed during matches will not change during the World Cup.

    Stable door comes to mind.
