Default Re: OT - Rugby World Cup

I am even more puzzled why referee took the ball out the hand of Wallabies just before that ! Sure, the guy was down but Jessus Christ !!! how could anyone think this way - "I was pushed to the ground and instead of pushing up I must play dead and release the ball" That ruling was against the very human nature and as such should promote SOME change in the rules. If I was Aussie, I would justifiably complain of Referee bias. It might be right according to rules but IMHO a blow to the very concept of sport.

All being said, England was far better team. Just MHO again
