       World Cup Chat

       Fra v NZ
       Straight off the bat kudos to Jaco Peyper, tonight looked every
       inch the experienced international referee he is - I trust this
       is the blueprint for his and others performance. Good decision
       making, looked relaxed, even smiled once (great spot that Penaud
       had touched the ball, knocking it on)
       TMO was quick, incisive and helpful
       ARs not so much - should be helping with individuals in front of
       kicker in open play, one flag up one not on a conversion and CR
       almost getting a line out position wrong from a kick direct to
       touch from a mark, which by definition has to be in the 22 (but
       cannot be a 50/22 as not from open play - something I learned
       tonight)
       Overall, decent game from Peyper, set a high benchmark

       Yes thought peyper was very good, impressed with decision
       making. Very impressed with France in second half as well,
       thought NZ would kick on but we’re very poor

       Interesting comments. Sadly missed the game but on the BBC have
       your say site there are some damning critics of Peyper such as
       inconsistent, fussy, clueless, no feel for the occasion, all
       about him etc.
       By the same token some views completely opposite and very much
       in keeping with those on here, full of praise for him
       One man’s meat is another’s poison

       I thought it was his most "fuss-less" game I had seen in a
       while, as we all know he can definitely over whistle a match
       into obscurity.
       A good litmus test for me is the opinion of Ben Kay, who was
       commentating and mentioned how "excellent" JP had been and hoped
       it was the "standard" others would reach

       I'm trying to work out how the yellow card to Tom Curry has been
       upgraded to a red card

       10’mins in and already 2 yellows. Ref and TMO and busy already.
       Edit- curry sent off. My knowledge of the rules of rugby union
       are not as good as most, but i totally disagree with that a as
       red. Looks like a total natural collision head on head, he
       hasn’t head butted him!

       And now they've decided the Argentina one is a yellow when that
       was much worse

       I saw a lot less mitigation for carreras challenge than for
       curry’s, to me Carreras was a lot more reckless and dangerous
       going for fords head. I’d love to know how the TMO decided
       Curry’s was worse.

       I thought both were yellows. Tom Curry is the instigator as he
       is in the landing zone- half time analysis suggests he has clear
       line of sight so no mitigation.
       If Curry's incident had not happened no-one would expect more
       than YC for Arg10, attempted charge down, turned so contact was
       with his body.
       Other than those, which ultimately aren't Raynal's decisions I
       think the French man has done well.

       Eng v Arg
       Backs to the walls 80 mins for England, defensively very good,
       relied on penalties and drop goals to keep the scoreboard moving
       (where have we seen this before?)
       Argentina were very poor, created very little, didn't seem to
       want to keep the ball and their ill discipline meant they were
       whistled out of the game.
       Raynal was consistent, if a little picky. Hard to shine in that
       type of game. Easily good enough
