The RWC was meant for the Springboks. How they survived the French, English and All Blacks its mind boggling. Just when you thought their opponents will take advantage of their mistakes, they did not. I guess it was a game of mental strength and resilience. Well done the Boks.

They had some help against France and a lot of help against New Zealand. Not to mention that scrum that was penalised against England in the semi final which many, including the greatest referee Nigel Owens, believe shouldn't have been given. I'm honestly suspicious that there's something dodgy going on behind the scenes with South Africa and rugby. 2007 England were robbed by being denied a clear try in the final... Officiating in rugby is usually among the best of any sport until it comes to South Africa games in World Cups

I look to 80min great play match after match, and yes there are many boks but Bongi had no sub’s during 4 serious games. He gave it all. And so did the rest of the team but they did get sub’s and I don’t think any player plays 80 during the last 4 RWC Matches.

@lyrabeins-stewartvoiceover2311 10 месяцев назад

SA losing their hooker in the 3rd minute no thanks to Shannon Frizell was a major setback. The replacement wasn’t a regular hooker. They were also down two players separately for 10 minutes each in the second half, effectively reducing their strength to fourteen men for almost 20 minutes collectively, leaving the team having to adjust on the spot with no break to plan anything or consult with coaches. On top of that, they had just played two big games with top tier opponents within a week of each other and of the finals. I think they did an exceptional job under adversity and tremendous pressure. They well and truly deserve that win. True champions that really got tested being the only team to play all five of the other top six teams. They somehow managed to get back on top against England too even though, in my opinion, the referee killed the game for them from the get go. Funny thing is when SA lost to Ireland in the pool games because of missed kicks, they were subject to all sorts of criticism. But when the AB lose because of all their missed kicks, they are praised and apparently, deserved to win. Equally strange is that when a team loses by one point, people say they deserve to win but when a team wins by one point they somehow don’t. Very strange world this is.

@samgeorgia7358 10 месяцев назад

@mthunziphakathi4215 Then call the knock on when it happens. The only reason play was brought back was because a try was scored. If NZ instead get a 5m lineout from the play instead of a try, which has a high probabliilty of a try, the play isn't brought back. Or even if they get a penalty from it, its not brought back. The refereeing decision is only made as a result of the outcome, not as a result of the infringement, which is why the "2 phase rule" is there IMO. Also where is the compensation for the 2-3 minutes of game time that was lost? In theory nothing happened but the clocked moved forward. I'm happy to go back but why does the clock not reset to the time of the infringment. NZ would have loved another 2-3 mins to try and get those final points.

One of the best down the middle discussions i had heard about the final. This has been one of the best Pods that I followed during the tournament. They finally said something that I had been waiting for. They had their chances, even with the card, missed calls and what not, the ABs had their chances, and they did not take it. The Boks, took every chance they got, and won the scoreboard, and won the game. Plain and simple as that.

@wernerheenop 10 месяцев назад

Thanks guys, by far the best analysis I have seen. Just one thing: There is a massive misconception around Barnes and Savea's penalty. He did NOT say "I saw the replay and realised I made a mistake". Exactly the opposite happened: His exact words were: "I DID NOT see the replay", meaning he was not looking at the screen when the replay was on. Then he said: "I did not see you release enough", meaning that he interpreted the play as a penalty against Savea for not allowing the tackler to place the ball. Point being, it is not that he did not realise a mistake was made and refused to reverse it. He interpreted it his way and did not see the replay so he could not change his mind.

I completely understand the frustrations of the AB supporters and my heart goes out to them because if it was us losing by one point I would have been just as gutted and probably would have had a lot to say about some of the ref calls. However what I don’t agree with is fans coming in and attacking players and saying the boks didn’t deserve the win. The players can’t control the refs or TMO and each and everyone puts there heart and soul in to those matches on both sides. The All blacks and springboks both deserved to win it, and as a Bok supporter I really thought we were going to lose it in the last 15 but the boys found a way. Win or lose I have immense respect for both teams and if any fan has any kind of respect or deep appreciation for rugby you would only have to look at the interaction between Kolisi and Ardie after the game to feel the right way about rugby. Hats off to All blacks, to me you will always be the team to beat. May the rivalry always continue and respect never die 🫡🇿🇦

At Cheetahs, Stormers, Boks 2011, Munster, Boks again, he always improves every team's defense to a world class level. Leinster will be very lucky to have him. If he can have an assistant coach with a good attacking pedigree, Leinster will be very hard to stop.

That was the moment he should have placed the ball. Fourie was never involved in the tackle. A player not upright, or on his feet is not allowed to play the ball. Savea was supposed to release the ball the moment the ref called "tackle". He was holding on, because had he placed it in terms of the rules, there was no way NZ could recycle the ball. Strictly speaking the penalty should have been awarded to SA.

What a great chat! Y'all were very objective. Good on you! My argument for Nienaber getting Coach vs Farrell is entirely that Farrell went into this year cycle with the "best" team and coached them to the quarter finals in a RWC year which is the objective of the year. Nienaber took a side that wasn't the "best" (1 player in the World XV), and coached them through the toughest route possible to lift the trophy. Springboks showed the expansive rugby vs Romania and Tonga. They showed the game-management and territory rugby vs Ireland (lost because of 5 missed kicks :/) and Scotland. They played the frenetic running rugby vs France. They played the ugly, clawing rugby vs England. Then they played the smothering rugby against the All Blacks (who were phenomenal, and eliminated the downside of only having 14 men by attacking constantly - Good Lord, ABs are great!)

As a South African, I am extremely happy we have won the world cup back-to-back, but I am also extremely sad and heart-broken. This is truly an end of an era for our current squad. From Siya being our first black captain, who reminds me of Mandela, to Faf with his long blonde hair and jack-russell-terrier-like tenacity; this team just oozies character and diversity like no other. The heart wrenching journey they have been through; fending off France, snatching victory from the jaws of defeat against England, holding-off the All Blacks with shear grit; it’s like their legacy was written in the stars... Even though, their performance had been questionable, fate wouldn't allow them to lose... Life in South Arica is really tough, back in 2019 the Springboks won us over by giving us hope, but now they've just plainly made us fall in love with them. Many of them are already in their 30s and will probably not be in the next world cup squad; Jacques Nienaber is moving on, so is Felix Jones; I'm sure other staff will follow cos they've all become high commodity now, which SA's economy can't afford to compete and keep...

Also asking what they represent to us as a nation and how they are a template for the country. Adding to the day is the fact that it is snowing - breaking the early summer heat wave. And the president has declared a public holiday on 15 th December to celebrate the cup and the hope the Boks stand for.

As much as the Boks won, lets not take that effort away from the AB. You got to give the ABs more credit buddy!

In the other playoffs we didnt have constant tmo intervention and it may be because they didnt see anything, in this case dangerous tackles. So, while we sit now and hackle the tmo, it is possible that the tmos actions were dictated by what he saw on the field and had nothing to do with attitude or inconsistency.

I respect you three for your honesty and even-handed commentary on a show that must have been almost impossibly difficult to film just after that Final. Well done, indeed. That being said, if we are going to talk about the officiating being consistent for the full 80, then shouldn't we talk about how Beauden Barrett's allowed try at 58 came off one of the most obvious knock-ons in Rugby Union history? The try was allowed, somehow, but the Rugby Gods definitely intervened to prevent the conversion after that try. The Rugby Gods being the ultimate arbiters of such things, of course. As a Springboks fan, I hate with the heat of a trillion exploding suns that the game was not played 15 on 15 for the full 80, and that there was so much controversy about the calls.

But the TMO didn't consistently help the ref make correct decisions. He got involved sometimes when when he felt like it and other times he didn't get involved. One time he alerted the ref to foul play which when checked by the bunker was deemed not to be foul play. The ref didn't think so at the time either. I.E. The Frizell penalty and yellow. Originally the TMO was someone the ref could call on when he needed more info, e.g. To check.a grounding, and or a foot over the side line during a grounding. Need to go back to that.

The panel's subsequent discussion about having to go back and reiview the decision is thus superfluous.

@garethnaude1175 10 месяцев назад

Id just love to hear the take about the TMO if the ref just awarded the Kurt Lee Arendse “try” without checking the grounding or foot in touch. It’s the same principle. If you are going to check the legality of the one, you have to check the legality of the other. How would it be right to award the NZ try when there’s an obvious and clear knock, just because the ref missed it, but not aware the Kurt Lee “try” when the ref couldn’t see the grounding and foot in touch and had to check the TMO. It’s completely arbitrary to say: we should go back so many phases. Either you use replays to get obvious calls right (and the Savea call was a 50/50), the knock on was clear as daylight. or you don’t.

@reesheggie561 10 месяцев назад

Hi gents, I am South African and I love the show, so appreciate the dialogue and the insights you offer on important questions, completely understand some of the frustrations. I think to offer an alternative perspective from an SA point of view, because often if you win you tend not to criticise marginal calls on either side, but from a SA perspective I think I could offer two critical moments for us that are overlooked because of the win, one being Siya's second half run and de Allende nearly getting over, he is tackled short by Jordie I think and is never released for a recycle but instead pulled over the line by Barrett and it is called held up instead of a potential penalty or quick recycle and try, so I felt that was marginal enough to feel agrieved. The other instance was Faf's out the back pass which was called forward but off which Willie appears to have potentially scored a try, for me these 2 instances would have been massive calls for me. Potentially would have been more frustrated by these calls had we lost but in the end we ended up on the correct side of the score. So I agree there are often marginal calls that can have big impacts on the outcome of the game, I feel maybe in this instance our opportunities seem to be overlooked as if NZ had all the lost opportunities to win the game, save for some marginal calls but my feelings are that we had missed opportunities too for the score to potentially be higher, save for some marginal calls from an SA perspective. Just a different perspective to keep the referee decisions in context on both sides, in a contest separated by a 1 point margin.

With SA playing in the URC we saw how involved TMOs were in the Northern Hemisphere games. Before the world cup we said this WC is going to be decided by cards as too much emphasis is placed on big collisions. We just thought the Springboks being physical would be the one to get the cards. It seems they adjusted a lot for the World Cup, as they almost stopped contenting kicks and rather waited for the ball to land.

As for the mics on water carriers, I think that's a great idea.. I think most Kiwi's might get confused when listing to so much Xhosa conversation but it least we'd cut back on the "SIDE" show. On the head contacts, I don't understand why Kiwi pundits are struggling so much with this: 1) Sam Cains' was picture perfect red card. It'll probably be used by WR as an example of what not to do. Shoulder to face, no drop in height.... illegal. 2) Kolisi's I'd argue wasn't even a yellow. He was bent at the waist. His primary point of contact was shoulder to body. His head then hits the ball and bounces up. It's not DIRECT head contact. It's not dangerous. It's at most a penalty, and probably just a "rugby incident". Go to 29:02 and use the . key to go forward frame by frame. Shoulder, ball, head. 3) Kriels' lack of a card. There are angles that show the heads move past each-other. The SCo player bounces off the ball which is being carried under his chin. There;s enough doubt there to wonder if head contact even happened. We don't card player if they might have done something wrong, we card them when it's clear and obvious. Sam Cain's card was clear and Obvious.

I don't think the strategy was wrong we were breaching the bok line one try we scored but got called back for a knock on at the lineout,we scored the second opportunity. We also had another try scoring opportunity in the 73 min we had an overlap and the Boks only had one player back near their 22. The bok winger intentionally knocked the ball down resulting in a yellow card and a penalty but we lost the opportunity to score a try and also lost the opportunity for field position which would have given us the opportunity to get points from kicks closer to the posts. I think the bad decision they made was to kick for the corner rather than take easy shots at goal in those tight games you need to take the easy points that are offered to you because points are so hard to come by and South Africa understands that.

Kolisi not passing the ball with an over lap which should have been an almost certain try, Boks held up over the line, Faf's charge down which could have gone anywhere, Pollard's drop charged down, ifs, ifs ifs. Both sides had chances to score more points.

BTW - both AB missed kicks were difficult kicks. Not a surprise that it were missed.

As a Bok supporter I am ecstatic we won and feel we fully deserve it. The ABs had their chances and in that sense sport is very cruel. Wayne Barnes had an excellent match. I do want to point out, that we can all benefit from simplifying the laws of the game, and even doing away with a lot of them. At the moment there is a lot of subjectivity in how they are interpreted and applied. Just think of how the refs need to make a decision in a second and we expect them to always get it right. It's impossible. But we can make it easier for the refs, the players and the fans to enjoy the game we love so much. Simplify the laws. Expand the game. PS I was gutted for Sam Cane, but the way the All Blacks responded was incredible. What a match.

With regards to that last scrum. Of course Faf isn't going to play the ball if NZ engages early. Also, what about the All black number 21 who plays Faf without the ball, while rotating around to the back of the South African scrum?

Thanks guys. The reason the game is slowing down is because of these discussions. You keep on going back on yourselves. When the media is inconsistent that's what annoys me!

good discussion - another moment that wasn’t even reviewed by the ref or tmo was the Barrett try where the pass appeared to go forward - not just 😢bounced - puts and takes both ways - I agree O’Keefe was good and ref’d the previous games Boks in - as you say overall the Boks played all the top teams and had the winning streak they needed, ABs had there chances - you can’t argue with that 👍

Loved the episode and the objectivity. Do agree with the issues raised and needs to be addressed for the greater good of the game. Will take the win and celebrate it but it was frustrating to watch.
