Re: The next RWC - who will hold the hunger?
NZ is in a good position for this. Two young locks in Lord and Va'ai We are in big trouble if Vaa'i is going go be one of the locks. The guy is a lightweight and lacks the physicality for test rugby. Hopefully Lord, Gallagher and Holland can step up over the next couple of years. Va’ai will struggl...

Re: World Rugby concedes AB's try should not have been disallowed
When I called clogs out for trolling :roll: :x But my apologies, you were right some guy who calls himself a senator said it was forward. It’s clearly not a forward pass but I will let you and Clogs convince each other that it is. Narcissist? First time anyone has actually accused me of that. :smug:

Well I’m pretty sure many people in rugby would disagree with you on that. And they would be wrong. Which try are you referring to? I haven’t even seen anyone mention it.

I am tempted to start a thread "Were Ireland robbed?"

One legitimate thing this thread has thrown up, if the tmo does go back a couple of minutes to an infringement voiding any play after, should the time be added back to the game clock?

Re: World Rugby concedes AB's try should not have been disallowed
I think it is bad for the sport to start winding back the tape after every score to see if any infringment occurred. Where does it stop? All the way back to the last reset or stoppage? Do we have to look at everything off the ball as well? That is the worry and I think with the ‘2 phases’ protocol,...

The two phases is in the protocol, not laws. A review that is not in accordance with the protocols is not permitted by the laws. The world rugby would of written them as laws, they have not. The NZ player knocked on, therefore there should have been no subsequent play and no try. Stop blaming every...

Back to the last set piece? Possibly, but we've seen multiple 20+ phase plays in the RWC - the NZ/Ire game had a couple of 30+ phase plays I believe - so we could be going back 3 or 4 minutes.
