First topic message reminder :

It's the AB's vs. Les Bleus.

I can't belive there are only 80 minutes of this great tournament left.

Here's hoping for a great game, and the best team winning.

Let's hear you thoughts on the match here.

I think Tran-Duc is a better option anyway. Could be fortuitous.

I'm glad it's not just me thinking Joubert is only reffing one side, After the semi I think i've developed a bias against them

Thing is if the ref keeps helping NZ everyone will just say they won it by cheating. Is it better to win fairly or not at all?

Well in their defence NZ have been the team of the tournament, havn't needed any decisions to go their way so far, so unless this is a close run thing it won't matter!

Another NZ pen for contesting the ruck, there wasn't a french hand there surely, Hari just went in past 2 kiwis who were not in the gate!

The breakdown before that one where Joubert has given the penalty, you had franks in from the side and off his feet, McCaw on the floor on the wrong side using his hands and no penalty given by Joubert.

This is shocking refereeing. Sorry but it is.

This game is building to be a decent tussle..

As an impartial I hope the French get a foothold...


Looks like they selected the un-kickable balls for this match..

I agree Cari. NZ are well capable of winning but the referee is killing any chance of a contest. He's penalising France for everything and oblivious to any NZ infringements.

Are we giving Joubert too much criticism? Is it just a case of SH team playing a SH ref better?!

No, but some will argue he's the reason the ABs won, and thus won unfairly. Unless of course, they score a few tries.

Though credit to France, they are playing well. Even if they cant get out of their own half...

Trinh-Duc is back on and is making a difference already.

Is it me or is every facet of play being allowed by NZ?

The lineout is no contest, too big a gap and scewed throws, the French scrum isn't allowed even though they look like their on top, some iffy forward passes and the kiwi back row allowed to do anything they like at the breakdown, Mccaws doesn't let go in the tackle, he is constantly off his feet, and even playing the ball while on his back!!!

I want to give Joubert the benefit, I like him, and he's been good but for 20 mins the French havn't had a chance!!!

people argue, they whinge at the best of times, you can win in the best possible way and still isnt enough- we are not even half way through the game]- lets worry about whats at hand first- most of time reffing can even it self out- lets wait and see, secondly the kiwis are gonna get a roasting half time, they could run this game away second half. I actually hope they wont which i am amazed to say but all the same.

Ha, you dont need to be a ref to see what is going on here, if you do then buy a rule book and read it...do it now and you might be ready for 2105 but don't hurry back Very Happy

Me too Davie, everyone calls bloody murder but just don't know the actual directives, although i'm clearly one who thinks this isn't totally neutral so far, just think Joubert is allowing NZ too much SH allowance at the minute
