[QUOTE="Zapphod, post: 909861, member: 57286"] I am not sure what all the fuss is about, is there any indication that he would have made the tackle anyway. It looked to me that there was at least a couple of metres of separation and DMac was already past him anyway, as has been mentioned the ref has to be somewhere near play so there is always the chance of contact. I would feel differently if I thought that there was a chance he was going to make the tackle but in this case I am not convinced. The French have done a good job on this tour of garnering sympathy on the back of some bad referee calls and crap All Black play but last night's and the week before refereeing calls were the right ones.
