Garces and Owens to ref semi finals...guess who we got?

 

Peyper not considered due to 'inappropriate' photo.

Kind of obvious that the welsh ref can only get one of the games.

 

Thought the NZ refs would feature more in the knockouts

Scary stat

 

 

Boks when reffed by Garces 

Played 14 Won 4  :eek:

 

Yes, but you must take into consideration who our opponents were when he reffed. AFAIK it was the All Blacks most of the time.

Brainfart moment on my part, forgot that Owens is Welsh.

 

Me too. 

 

He apparently apologised for the photo but I gather that he wasn't considered for the games in any capacity due to it.

Can someone please explain the inappropriateness of this?

 

Surely he wouldn't have been selected for the Springboks game, so the fact that he had a drink with some Welsh people is moot, because it is the same game that he would be ineligible for.

 

He wasn't considered in any capacity. World Rugby is investigating...whatever that means. Personally do not see anything wrong as I don't think anyone can fault the red card but I guess it was seen as insensitive or whatever.

Peyper should have known that our chances to draw a French ref for the semi would be good.

Garces is already a bias ref in my eyes. Now add the insult of this photo in the press of the SA ref that red carded a French player that surly cost them the game.

Ah, thanks. Starting to see the context now.

 

But goodness me, people are snowflakes...
