[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 1101097, member: 45598"] I can't say I disagree with anything that's being said but it still doesn't sit right with me. Raynal have the pen at 78.24 and was still explaining it to NZ at 78.37. It's hard to follow then because he cuts to replay but he calls time on at 78.57 and blows at 79.03. 6 seconds for a kicker to set himself and go isn't that generous, especially when half the team is in a huddle (which I blame more than Foley, do that when the ball is dead ffs). I think, rightly or wrongly, it ruined what would have been an all time test match. It highlighted issues with refereeing communication at the very least - "we play" is hardly a clear warning you'll turn a penalty over. From a refereeing perspective it may have been sound but from a player's perspective it was bogus. Very few sports have a bigger disconnect there than rugby. [/QUOTE]
