[RWC2023 QF1] Wales vs Argentina (14/10/2023)

[HenryChinaski]

Oft. Poor call. There were lots of mitigations there, but still

 

[Reiser99]

I get the reasoning but that’s not inline with how the other refs are reffing

I think this is the big issue. I can understand the logic too, but another ref would have carded him and possibly even a red.

 

[IT157]

I don't think it was a red. Nick Tompkins was falling and there was mitigation.

Of course all Welsh commentators are screaming for a red.

 

[Wichita]

Total bonkers

That’s my pet hate in rugby right now, refs all doing their own things.

I don’t care if I don’t agree with a law, but having all the refs having their own interpretations is killing the game for me.

 

[Jimbo]

I get a bit tired of hearing all this great defence most teams don’t get away with not being carded for this volume of pens

 

[General Melchett]

Dickson making doubly sure this is his last game at this RWC

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Classic Forshaw defence, that

 

[Booboobang]

Karl dickinson showing his incompetence is not nationally aligned.

Wales are notorious for it.

But if they keep getting it away with it, why not.

 

[Bluemoon]

I don’t think it was a red on review for the reasons you state, but it’s a yellow and the review process 99/100 in other games.

 

[Bruce_ma gooshvili]

If Sanchez was on they would kick points and aim for 18-17.

 

[Cruz_del_Sur]

Surprised at that non-call.

Not what i understood. It was a penalty from a non foul play infraction and we had pen advantage.

 

[Booboobang]

Forshaw is a hell of a coach. Shame Borthwick went with his mate instead.

 

[Reiser99]

Next Welsh penalty should be a yellow regardless of where it is.

 

[Ddanno]

Wales on a warning so Arg yellow in t-minus 5...

 

[HenryChinaski]

Is it really good defence when you give away a penalty to achieve it?

You cant help but notice that Wales give away tons of penalties in order to survive on their try line. They basically back themselves to get out of trouble before the 'final straw penalty'. It would be good to see tougher action on this

100% this!

 

[spursincornwall]

It may not be the highest quality of game, but its going down to the wire

 

[HenryChinaski]

Haha Wales players shouting for a penalty for holding on while a try is in the process of being scored
