[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 737675, member: 39190"] I'd love to congratulate Argentine on a historic win. They played with passion and were accyrate in what they did. To say it didn't involve a huge hand from the ref would be erroneous though. And I'm not talking about a few key instances here. I'm talking about a ref having two totay different rule books; When Argentina infringes at the scrum he resets, when SA does (or even doesn't but its 50/50) he penalizes. When we are attacking in the 22 and Beast goes off his feet clearing out he penalizes us but not one of the entire Argentine pack that does so at near every single ruck. The one line-out Creevy doesn't through skew we steal. How many high tackles from Argentina and general cynca play frm them when SA is attacking? Only the one yellow when the game is essentially over is extremely lenient. SA forward passes blown up, Argentina's not so etc etc. I generally don't like to blame referees and I feel I can handle a loss as well as the next man but your total denial of a poor ref performance is too much to take.
