@level(level)-89: I doubt any of us will argue with you on that one. Jonker did the Stormers a favour.

@Kleuter(Kleuter)-87: You think your team is the only one that gets shafted by poor refereeing? As for sailing off to cooler waters leaving us poor Oceanians to fend for ourselves, heard it before, just a fantasy. I wasn't a fan of Pdiv because he was a plonker. The ANZAC spirit will hopefully live on well after Ive left this earth, God defend Nz and God bless Australia.

@YoMama(YoMama)-64: This should have been done nearly ten years ago! We've been losing tests because of refs for a very long time now. The fact that the exposed email about NZ and Aussie refs wanting to "get those jarpies" didn't lead to an investigation makes the IRB look more than a little dodgey. We all know that every sport is corrupt to some degree; but rugby takes it to a whole new level. When they say it's New Zealand's game... I never thought they meant they bought it, lol.

Go to hell, Level. We are dealing here with a syndicate of crooked
refs. Not even lie detector tests and criminal profiling can weed out
this rot.

Both teams are rubbish . You Africans have short memories. Marius Plonker killed any chance the Canes had against the Stormers

A case of NZ returning the favor (for WC?). The cycle will continue. Soul-less.

@bryce_in_oz(bryce_in_oz)-74: “paying leagues in SH”???
Where the **** do you think the kiwis and ausies will get enough money to pay their players when SA pulls out? From the gates? Yah right. Just look at your crowd attendance. From tv rights? Yah right, that figure will decrease quickly.
“Paying league in NH”? Well, I agree with you on that one.
Fact is, NZ made their bed with the ausies. They sold their souls when they agreed to stuff the Japies because we don’t share their accent, because we don’t share their population make-up, and because they don’t like our coach. WTF was wrong with Peter de Villiers? At least he was funny. ******* racists the whole lot of arsseholes.
If nz or aus play against any group of terrorists, I’ll support the latter. Have no respect left for those pielkoppies. Soul-less, moral-less bunch.
LOL. Have a good one.

@Slartibartfast(Slartibartfast)-82: When did the Cheetahs manage to win last time under Jonker, Joubert or Mark Lawrence control? With a NZ referee the Cheetahs at least were in contention for 80 minutes, taking into account the flying East jet lag and being the visiting team, a loss by 1 point is not bad at all

@Transformation(Transformation)-80: The Cheetahs were in the game through out and had their chances, it always the case when they play under a referee who is not a S African! It may be something to think about!

@Jeez(Jeez)-81: You cannot win against a ref intend on making sure the other team wins, defense will get you nowhere. The reality is that their defense is poor, their ball retention is poor (just ask Trans) and they have a kuk coach but they should have and would have won if not for the ref.

@Slartibartfast(Slartibartfast)-79: yeah, but unfortunately their defense cost them the game against a team that didnt play particularly well...not that penalty.

ashley johnson loses the ball in contact ALL the bloody time: the fourth time he did it led to pat mcCabe’s try! that s(hit is not on!

he isn’t the only cheetahs player that doesn’t protect the ball…

no wonder adriaan strauss’ hair is always shaggy he must be pulling it all the damn time!

How many penalties did the Brumbies get in the last 20 minutes?

@Jeez(Jeez)-77:

Ja but the second last penalty was not for an early engage, it was because Strauss ‘moved his head’…

@Jeez(Jeez)-77: I picked up the early engagement at the scrums as well. Quite pathetic actually.

The refereeing was poor, the brumbies engaged early almost 80% of the time, but the cheetahs got penalized! But they lost because their defense was poor once again. Against a better team they would have been beaten convincingly. They should blame their defense, and neutral parties should complain about the inconsistant and **** refereeing! Players gets sited, but why arent there a ref sighting committee? If the bugger is inconsistant he should at least be told about it. Otherwise the next team, most probably a SA team will be robbed again.
