[QUOTE="William18, post: 464024, member: 38439"] To me the scandals did not take anything away from the tournament. You seem to get that at most big events. The referees weren't that bad in my opinion but my team did win the thing of course. Those things can't be controlled by the host nation. What I am proud of is that my country delivered a passionate world cup and we all got in behind the event. I thought the quality of rugby was better than at previous world cups and we got to see a few upsets which was good. The comments that this was an exceptional world cup were made because of how we hosted it not just becaus of the quality of the rugby or whatever. In the following thread the 2010 FIFA World Cup was criticized at which point South Africans said that what they were being criticized for was not their fault [URL]http://www.therugbyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?19118-Summary-of-world-cup[/URL] .
