[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 865680, member: 73592"] Almost certainly the case, though we can't be 100% sure that Garces wouldn't have intervened anyway, I agree that it's highly unlikely. However, the TMO referral did happen, and it is absolutely within the protocols to happen. Rugby isn't a court of law, and the ref isn't required to pretend he hasn't seen something that he has seen. I've never claimed that the video footage didn't affect the decision; I've only claimed that no protocols were broken. I can't prove a negative, so I need someone to produce a protocol that was broken before I will accept that the protocols were broken. Without that, we're down to personal opinions about what the decision should have been, which I'm not particularly interested in as there are too many valid options. [/QUOTE]
