[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 965462, member: 74121"] It may well be, although Townsend hasn't gone in for tedious mind games before. I think it is fine to lose respect for a coach if they do this and I think it is no coincidence that both of them are doing it at a time they are presiding over sub-par He is being a knob. As I said elsewhere there was 100% a crooked feed called earlier in the tournament, possibly the first I'd seen admittedly. Not the first time this year Townsend has got something totally wrong. He'd be better served looking at Pro14 highlights and wondering why Huw and Bennett aren't currently in Japan. I appreciate it can be tactical by Townsend (who doesn't normally go in for mind games) but there is a world of difference between mind games with a rival coach and having a pop at a referee who is almost certainly not allowed to defend themselves in public. I hope this is nipped in the bud before it becomes a trend. [/QUOTE]
