Rugby World Cup

The problem with refs making mistakes is that they rely on the video refs so much to ensure they are right, that when they miss something completely, or aren't able to refer it, it makes it seem so much worse.

They should adopt a challenge system like they have in cricket/tennis. Give each team a number of challenges where they can ask for a video ref referal. This would speed up the game since every call isn't referred, and would take the scrutiny off the refs because it's up to the players.

Saw some kiwi's having a whinge that Cheika won the World Rugby Coach of the Year, saying it should have been Hansen because he won the world cup. Hansen had an easier job taking the number 1 team to the world cup final, whereas the Wallabies were barely looking to get to the finals 12 months ago.

We need to band together crowmanz and ignore them. Sadly, winning is a bit too important to some (but not all) of our cuzzies from over the dutch...they will mature into adults one day, but don't let the whingers get you down in the meantime. There is plenty of good cuzzies.

Rugby, and occasionally netball, is their way of being at the big people table. Leave them have their moment mate....they need it more than you do.

See you at the big people table. Anthony.
