If it's okay to slate a player then it's okay to slate the official
Barnes family may have heard him being abused in the final but I bet players families have heard similar directed at their kin.

Re: The multiplication of red cards in rugby because of the new laws about head tackling
Players should stop flying into rucks recklessly, then they wont get sent off for it. Refs should also be more strict on enforcing the existing laws around rucks as well. This. I always wonder, when they are targetting a player who is head down over the ball, what part of his body they think they a...

Not sure it's all Fozzies fault. After about 55 minutes you could see the Argies were knackered but the ABs still resorted to plan A and kicked when there was no need. There doesn't seem to be any leaders on the pitch that can change tatics with out a half time break
