Anyone enjoying the rugby or AIBU?

[dancerchancer]

I was looking forward to X factor. What's all this rugby malarkey?

Should have gone to the TMO for the last penalty considering ref couldn't see who last handled the ball and it was such an important decision.

Poor Scotland. Gutted for you I'm English by the way.

The All Blacks haven't won yet.

Craig Joubert - and the way he scuttled off without shaking hands says masses. What's the point of TMO if you don't use it???

I want to see either NZ or Argentina take the trophy.
Anyone but the Aussies or Saffas. And I say that as a daughter of a Saffa with an intense love for Australia.

Craig Joubert may be the most hated man in Scotland. Rightly fucking so.
And the most unsportsmanlike behavior. Cunt.

The ref in the Ireland/ Arg match wasn't up to much either

Not sure who to support now. Australia maybe?

I think the All Blacks will win it though.

Craig Joubert; the ref that is said to have cost France the World Cup in 2011

With you on that Stroke

I might put my money on Argentina.

The referee is an absolute plank! Why use tmo for straightforward decisions throughout the game yet not use it for what was the biggest decision of the game

Same guy (Matt Williams) was just involved in a discussion about the poor calls he made just now - yellow card etc

Maladicta I don't think that's fair - Wales certainly went down fighting, and I don't think you can dismiss Ireland's effort out of hand either!
There has been some dodgy reffing- hope Nigel does the final.

I actually think it's a shame for Australia too, that they won due to a controversial decision. Would have been better if it was a clear, unquestionable win (for either side), although they're not complaining.

There's been a few dodgy decisions. Most don't matter really, but ones like in this match do. TMO for everything else but not this?

England supporter here, but I actually feel more gutted for Scotland than I did for England . They really we're robbed by poor refereeing.

The theme about Joubert could be his refereeing rather than sour grapes you know.
He should have taken that to the TMO to check. It was a huge decision and rightly or wrongly it would have been worth checking. In previous games he's changed his decision on seeing a big screen replay (not as a TMO call).
Anyway very sorry for the Scots :(
But this has been a fabulous weekend of rugby. The France NZ game was a bit flat but otherwise it has been phenomenal. A Wales win could have been my one change!

Ach I'm an overly emotional Scot, apologies to Wales and ish to Ireland

'ish' to Ireland?

Bugger off.

Ha ha! We watched the Pumas in their first match, they gave the All Blacks a good run. They rode their luck against Ireland

There's been a few dodgy decisions. Most don't matter really, but ones like in this match do. TMO for everything else but not this?

Unfortunately the Ref has no option to us the TMO in open play unless it's potential foul play or play leading to the scoring of a try.

It was the wrong decision though, certainly.

So much as gone to the TMo this World Cup I'd started to think everything could be consulted!!!

Argentina are probably gutted too!!!

Well I'm absolutely loving it, the bloody X-factor can go swivel. It's only every four years and I will be very bored when it's over.
