[QUOTE="Regan, post: 867759, member: 41205"] The latter 2 can be argued to the death, I'd acknowledge that. Personally Barrett was a penalty for me. The thing I don't know how you can argue is that knock on....it was obvious. His hand hit it, it went forward (hand separated) and he regathered. Then the TMO had the audacity to say no compelling evidence. I mean it certainly can't have gone back.... No denying Lions played the better 2nd but I guess a yellow etc. you'd expect that. Take the controversial calls out and I reckon you still have a game the Lions may have won so yeah dunno why the Canes didn't sew that up. Guess the travel and altitude may be variables but well done for the Lions for not conceding at HT. On a competition point of view, of course we have the Saders having to travel to SA for a final. The media have more to talk about for another week. Some would say it's a scripted outcome for farcical format. There'd be less talk about the format if the Lions were knocked out last week and we had a guaranteed NZ home final and both NZ semis. So I guess we're all winners by there being more of a shitstorm about the format. [/QUOTE]
