    Poor from the Lions, over committed to the contestable and two missed tackles when Kolbe wasn't even evading.

    Surely that's a very clear knock on from green?

    Jesus. The Boks are incredibly lucky there.

    And the TMO director is a **** disaster.

    C'mon make a decision quickly and get on with the game. Let's make rugby a spectacle again.

    Just f*cking award the try ffs.

    This series has been ruined by the f*ckery of Gatland and Rassie.

    This questioning of the integrity of referees has been the reason these games have been so crap.

    Absolutely zero need to check that for so long.

    That’s given as a knock on in any other game no? If you’re going to give that, surely anyone dropping the ball straight down can’t be a knock on now as it hasn’t technically gone forward.

    Then stop posting and go away.



    Anyway, I'd be annoyed if that was disallowed for the Lions. Benefit of doubt for attacking team.


    Difference between Williams in the first half and WLR there, that's nothing to do with the ref.

    It wasn't clearly forward off Wiese though.

    I didn't think the ball went forward. It was off green but he made contact in front of the line and the ball never travelled forward.

    Good decision for me

    Williams had to find touch there. The Lions needed territory to settle things down a bit. Stupid call just to kick it right back to them.

    The amount of unnecessary TMO stoppages across the series has been absolutely insane, its borderline unwatchable as a neutral. On top of that, they are taking WAY too long. Simple decisions taking 3 or 4 minutes is killing the flow of the game. Most of them just end up reaffirming the ref's on-field decision anyway, crazy.

    It wasn't a knock on, the ball needs to go towards the opposition try line, which it didn't. The problem is that so often in rugby, a ball is called as a knock on when it's not.

    The final pass to Kolbe was more questionable than the knock on.

    Wiese is a complete liability. A dirty player but no subtlety.

    Well that’s exactly it. It’s about consistency. ‘Knock-on’ is usually used as a catch-all for any loss of control of the ball, so if you’re going to allow that try, have to be consistent about application.

    Wiese is such a liability hasn’t offered near enough positives to negate his stupid penalties.

    Missed most of the second test but unless he had a stinker in that game, Lawes has surely been the Lions' best player this series.

    Williams was very much obstructing the clearout for that turnover

    Yeah, can't lie, I rate the call to go to the corner. Murray not having two anticlimactic drawn series.

    Winner takes it all.

    Cynical from SA. After the deliberate slap though, he's clearly not going to give a card unless it's absolutely egregious.
