I can't believe this video ref....he has dissallowed 3 perfectly good Tonga tries.

Two of them

53rd min, brilliant catch and touch down and calls it double movement..... no way.


58th min, Scotland fumble play the ball on their own line, Tonga grab the ball and touch down...and the      video ref claims he lost the ball...no way.

Yes I have a bet on Tonga but FFS.

Now the video ref seems to have run out of reasons to disallow a try....Tonga score and I'm back on with my bet.

Won because of the video ref..........no doubt about that. A disgrace !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :witch:

Even the last second play Cline gave as a lost ball before he saw the full set of replays.

Sounded like Brough's kicking made all the difference, but couldn't the ref have made a decision for himself? Sounded like everything went to the video ref.  Good game from what I could hear, Tonga could have won it in the last minute, and Scotlands winner was a benefit of the doubt try.

Hope peoples bitterness didn't keep fans away. A fantastic advert for rugby and the county in general.

Well done to all concerned.

Watched the game on tv the replays showed that the video ref got it right each time, the commentators agreed

Tonga also got a benefit of the doubt try

A great game thoroughly enjoyed the night. Forget where it is just get there on Sunday and see a very good Italy team as well as an excellent Scotland. This World Cup just keeps getting better.

I hope CBC are looking at this and now realise what a mess they made of it and what redevelopment could have done for the town. I'm sure they would have been there last night on freebies so they will have seen it at first hand.
