[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 1125855, member: 73144"] Fat chance. I’m still bitter about Cueto’s try in 2007! I’m not as exercised about this as some. But the powers that be have now said that a huge decision in a huge match was wrong. Of course it’s irrelevant now as you say, but the outcome might (probably wouldn’t, but just might) have been different if a YC had been given on the day - a conclusion that many people arrived at in real time. Yes, it was a hard call and there’s more pressure on refs in real time but the refs that get these games are supposed to be the very best. A frustration is that there were good camera angles - it was clear to see what happened and there were 4 officials on the case. And still an incorrect decision was reached. A decision that was almost certain to have a material impact on the match. No sour grapes against Ire BTW or conspiracy theories. Fully deserved GS. Would love to be a fly on the wall at Peyper’s house tonight. [/QUOTE]
