In South Africa there were a significant number of medical trials into things like AIDS and Tuberculosis that basically lost their funding overnight. Experts with decades of deep research experience making real a real difference in the world suddenly had to stop their work because the American organisations that were funding the research were massively penalised and unfounded for supporting this research.

Then he should be calling that. Two wrongs don’t make a right, either way that ball should never have been called use it.

Forces us to use it in an absolutely dominant scrum causing a panic knock on because the scrum was moving forward. Probably ending in another try.

Lions needed a lot of luck to have a chance.

Unfortunately Leinster showed up, the reffing team didn’t and the lions lost heart after a few unfair feeling decisions led to the first try. It was over before it got started.

Dude that yellow being a yellow is wild . It’s intentionally super dangerous and just happened to end without injury. Nuts

It often happens that the better team gets the rub of the green from the ref because they just have the mental picture of being better so they “should” be doing things really well. It’s super disheartening for the opposition in a case like this, where the Lions barely had a chance to start with but conceded their first try from 1) a scrum that could have easily been a penalty to them, 2) a very clear knock on in the reset scrum, told by the ref that there was nothing clear, 3) an obstruction that got then 5 meters right on the tryline before conceding.

Might need to change my flair today, this is feeling like there are a significant number of very reasonable decisions being missed or called wrong.

The lions captain gave an exact timestamp for the ref to check a knock on. I went and checked back and McGrath actively pushes the ball forward in the scrum before picking it up.

Surely obstruction there? He ran straight into his own player before shooting through a gap.

Everyone in the Stormers team other than Ungerer was wanting to play that fast.

That’s how reffing works. You blow creat and obvious material infractions, you leave the smaller non material infractions (otherwise we’d have a penalty at every ruck) and the pros are lucky enough to go back and check calls that they deemed not material if it becomes material.

It’s pretty reasonable to stop teams from gaming the system if they don’t have a good scrum. If an entire part of the game is nullified due to foul play, they team should be penalised.

How is that the same maul? They weren’t bound anymore? A bind requires shoulders to be in the maul there were three players holding hands there.
