[QUOTE="Arcturus, post: 1127210, member: 85747"] Well that was incredibly frustrating. Always thought it would be a tough uphill battle without the power of McFarland and (as of last week) Christie, but to then loose BV and it did look like we had not much heft. Sloppy passes and too many moments where we were isolated really did seal out fate. Credit to the French, they made perhaps three (?) quality try saving tries that could have really led to a different outcome. The ref wasn't great, but far more important with the RWC in France is independence of the video feeds. It isn't a good look when there seems to be minutes of replays and countless angles that would favour a French side and then literally nothing else for a non-French opponent. As for who is going to win the tournament, it will be a toss up between Toulouse and Leinster. They both have too much quality and depth. [/QUOTE]
