[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 1056749, member: 55747"] Ok, i see what you mean. I guess i expressed myself poorly or more likely maybe left a bit open to interpretation. My bad. I'll elaborate. I didnt mean to say (dont think i said that, but fair enough) leaving Argentina out was a planned thing. What i said/meant was that, once the Kolisi, Savea and Hooper were there, it wasn't as if someone from outside the production area took a photo of the three with a tele lens and then uploaded it to twitter on his personal account. This was the result of a production team that, knowing Montoya wasnt there, consciously decided to make an official picture with the trophee and uploaded it as an institutional photo through their official social media accounts. What i mean by "plan/planned" was that this was no accident. I dont believe they wanted Montoya to be absent but once he wasnt there, there was a conscious decision to go ahead. It wasnt a split-second decision where the person in charge had to decide whether to go ahead and everything coming after that was inevitable. I dont wanna split hairs on semantics and the definition of plan/planned. I assume what i meant is not crystal clear. If not, kindly let me know. Ledesma (or maybe UAR, cant recall) was told that such picture would not be taken/distributed. Specifically. That promise was broken. We can sugar coat it the way we want, but that fact won't change. Pouring salt instead of sugar into a coffee mug is an accident. This wasn't. [/QUOTE]
