JohnJ Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Sorry all, but it was a game that the French team should have win if the refeere (spelling?), the horrible Mr. Joubert, had not choose to ignore the terrible technicals faults that the AB has done during all the second half, particularly their low minded captain, Richie McCauw, the shame of a nation, who beat badly Parra, the french kicker in the first half with his fist and knees in the same action! He should have get a red cart for this and at least a yellow one for all the fault he has done in the second half in every ruck. It's the black who has plaid UGLY and DIRTY. They win the tin can but they lost every thing else in this mascarad final. A real rip off, in front of the rest of the world. Hugh! You have a point about the referee but I think a lot of that falls into the category of 'home field advantage'. Otherwise your post has a pro-French bias which does not coincide with my view of the game as a neutral. I thought it was incredibly tense and exciting and, looking at the tournament as a whole, the All Blacks are deserved world champions (and by the way, my take on the Richie McCaw incident is that it was not intentional).

The final was just BIG RIP-OFF by a "play dirty" team, help by shamefull mr Joubert. you want an opinion who is not bias (according to your term): listen to this on you tube: - http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Refereeing+discussion+from+The+Breakdown&aq=f About your take of the sweet mr. Richie McCaw "not intentional" incident look here (with the fist first and the knee in second to fulfill the work. As you say, you're a neutral person, isn'it? So, be the judge. We will see our much neutral you are in reality). - - Morgan Parra vs Richie McCaw's knee Edited October 25, 2011 by P.L.M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
