If it wasn't for the fact I was using my "Sportz Ears" thingey..I would not have had a clue what was going on with the game...!!!Subi is C R A P for rugby...!!! What with the B***&** mexican wave, and people constantly getting up to get drinks....It was difficult to watch the game....

Why give this guy any meaning , when he has been shown the door?
Did anyone else hear the ref say to Genia about half way through the first half...."have a word with No 5 who is continually making a nuisance of himself...if he's not subbed off I will send him off".....WT??? Also Sharpie was penalised for a head butt Sharpie was given by a BOK??? WT???
Who was the ref Hertryk? Was it Owens?
Yup
The ref was a muppet
They all are though
He was bad but didn't destroy the game totally like many of these belters do
Controversy corner
On the whole he's OK, and he was most probably surprised to see this afterwards:
"Springboks lock Eben Etzebeth has been banned for two weeks for head-butting Australian counterpart Nathan Sharpe, ruling him out of South Africa's Rugby Championship game in New Zealand this weekend. "
Jeesus he should have given him a real one for two weeks
Nah, even though it was pretty soft, there would have been an uproar if he had been given less than two weeks for a headbutt of any flavour.
Do I need to talk about the dangerous tackle rulings to justify my point?

Sharpie wasn't penalised for the headbutt, he was penalised for the play before that. When he got up from the ruck he went for a Bok (not sure if it was the one who headbutted him), but got surrounded and then the Bok put his forehead on Sharpe's chin and moved it forward.
The ref and touchies must have missed it, although God knows how, especially from Sharpie's reaction which was just what he wanted - he'd riled the Bok into what should have been a card.
The fact is Sharpie has had some brainfarts the last 2 tests doing some silly things that you would not expect him to do.
Hopefully being captain will get his mind on the job and produce a MOM performance.
