Is it the TMO "making his mark" or are the referee and assistant referees just not trusting their own judgements (i.e. The neck roll penalty right in front of the assistance).
As for the try disallowed in the 1st half just before Michalak kicked the conversion, RU should learn from RL as if it is referred to the TMO they always check the grounding in RL.
And I couldn't disagree more about the idea of banning lifting at a lineout. Look back at any lineout "back in the day" it was a lottery.

Well done France! No bonus point but a win's a win.
Hope we don't lose Huget for the rest of the tournament
The TMO thing has the potential to get out of hand. I don't want them to refer absolutely everything to be checked, it makes it all too long. The danger will be where they don't re-show a dodgy try on the big screen which opens things up to be accused of bias.

I have tickets for Qtr final winner A vs Runner up B.
Best thing about this tourno is that I really have no idea who I'll be watching.

Might see you there Cstar. Back from the SA v Japan game, such an cracking game. Japan were up for it from the start.
Good atmosphere at the Amex too, maybe taking a beer to your seat makes the difference 😆!

Wow Southcoastpete, that must have been special. Turning up expecting a 50-60 point slaughter, and seeing the biggest upset ever and one of the great games.

Yeah nice one Pete, I saw the France game live and am just home. Mine was lacking the fireworks and unpredictability. Good to go though, New Zealand v Namibia Thursday is my only other game.
