    Have no idea how the biggest game in rugby this year was awarded to this useless ref. Just can not understand it. He is not up to this level at all. We saw how he almost cost us against the Scots.

  • 183

    Weet julle die Haka word so geredigeer en geoefen lyk my nou begin hulle animated sokker stront in hul game ook in bring

  • 184

    Once again the kiwi commentators disagree with the ref’s decision. We are 7 points behind, we will just have to score another try!

  • 185

    178 @ Pietman:
    Piet, All I wanted was a fair contest. If it was think we would beat them.

  • 186

  • 187

    NZ would not have been able to win the fair contest. So they fixed it.

    @ Puma:
    We can still do it BigCat, we can beat them even with the ref against us. Hang it there mate. The pleasure will be even greater if we can win this match!

  • 190

    @ Puma:
    True, but it will be so much sweeter if we can nail them with 14 men against 16! And we will bru, we will, no way we are going to lose this game, just no way.

    Kyk lets face it as iemand dink die Skeidsregter is fair moet hy sy kop laat lees

  • 192

    Bokke physicality has been good in the 1st half

  • 193

    Lemoenetyd

    We can still take this!

  • 194

    @ superBul:
    Erg man, die bleddie toneelspelery, almal krul oopbek van die pyn en na die strafskop trippel hulle soos rieldansers, klugspul, en die ref val vir daai kuk.

    Halftyd.
    7 punte dif is fokkol manne, ons is nou-nou daar, moet net die bal agter kry by Willie en Zane.

    The All Blacks have lost all credibility in my eyes. They are the biggest posers in World Rugby. And NZ is upset because Bissie broke little poor Carter with the cleanest tackle in the match. And the public over there need to go back to school as they are uneducated. Boooing a player for a undeserved yellow card.

  • 196

    Boks only 7 points behind after horrendous ref decisions which accounted for about 13 points. We can still do this. We have to play the ref out of the game and just play our game. Kommaan Bokke!

    Hope we came back fired up in the 2nd half and score quick.

    Look I was up at 5am this morning already and yes, nervous but excited for this game. It just spoils it when a ref gets it so horribly wrong. No French ref should ever be awarded such a big game to officiate again. For a start there is a language barrier as well. They also no where near the best refs. Pity one of the Irish refs never got this game. Meyer has to talk to this ref as well.

    Anyhow we just have to hit back quick in the 2nd half.

    Wel 2 keer is die TMO ingeroep terwyl die Ref glad nie hom n kans gegee het om n Fair bydrae te lewer nie. Simpel vraag met die eerste drie, het die TMO bykans geen kans gegee nie. Die tackle beslissing was net oor die Oscar acting van DAN, ek het baie respek vandag verloor vir die AB,s hulle gebruik nou hul hoogheilige status en die refs eet alles soos soetkoek op.

  • 199

    DIE’ ref is n blind franse k*nt!!!!

  • 200

    ek is sooooo kwaad jy kannie glo nie!

  • 201

    Waas my Kamele… en ek dink ek moet begin drink!

    Is die boeing al oor?

  • 202

    200 @ 4man:
    Hello sammajoor… how’s it hanging?

  • 203

    ons kan die game wen!

  • 204

    If we still go on to win this game, it will be a major coup!

  • 205

    On OSN hereJeremy Guscott says ‘good tackle, but any time Carter is involved everyone goes oh my word!’ Scott Gibbs agrees with him, says the ref ‘bubbled it’. Jake White says ref should use big screen, etc.

  • 206

    @ 4man:
    Kyk ou maat ek kan alles vat maar vandag vat almal hierdie aap van n ref aan. Maar ek dink hy sal dalk terugkom en sy stront regmaak. Miskien se iemand iets in sy oor, wel ek hoop regtig nie ek sien weer so iets van die ref in die 2de helfte nie.

  • 207

    @ 4man:
    Dankie vir die mails Sarge, appreciated. Sent it through to the mother and all.

  • 208

    neee GBS ek will frans mense gaan soek en hulle sommer moer. Ek moet bietjie bedaar. ek’t my seun gebel 6000 myl om die ref te vloek. Ek is vol adrenaline. As ons die ding vat dan is dit ons beste game ooit!!!

  • 209

    @ superBul:
    To be fair guys, the ref’s decisions have nothing to do with the All Blacks or New Zealand. Don’t blame anyone but the ref! He is the one that is incometent!
