Kurt-Lee Arendse WORLD CLASS Performance vs Australia
I think it's safe to say that Kurt-Lee Arendse is turning into a star with the form he has shown over the last 2 years. He keeps on scoring and the great thing about Arendse is the fact that he is incredible on defence, which is not something you would expect when you look at his size. But just like Cheslin Kolbe, he is fearless and that shows in his attitude on defence as well as under the high ball. But today it wasn't his defensive performance that impressed, it was his try scoring ability again. He just is always in the right place at the right time. His able to create tries as well, but he is turning into an amazing finisher just like Mapimpi. South Africa is incredibly lucky to have someone like Arendse in the same squad as Cheslin Kolbe. Overall South Africa had an amazing game, and showed an attacking game which is good to see. Libbok and Esterhuizen also put up their hands with great performances and that bodes well for South Africa. I don't think todays game says much about Australia, as this was their first game with Eddie Jones, so it's unfair to expect them to hit on all cylinders in their first game. It's was always going to be a tough game for them traveling to Loftus, I don't think this would've been the result had we played in Australia. So again, it was a good game for the boks, but I wouldn't be too happy just yet, there's still a few players who needs to prove themselves, but today was a great start towards that. But it was an exciting start to the Rugby Championship, but next week is going to be another massive test against New Zealand. Lastly, I would also like to thank VHA Accounting Solutions for their partnership during this 2023 Rugby Championship. This video was sponsored by them.

Dear World Rugby... Thanks For Killing Our Game | Freddie Steward Red Card vs Ireland 2023
The title says it. World Rugby killed our sport. Officiating has become so Stupid and senseless, that we can't use common sense anymore. World Rugby has made it impossible for Referees to success, then you combine that with how bad the current crop of refs are, then you get results like this. When you have a ref like Jaco Peyper, a TMO like Marius Jonker, and an AR, like Ben O'Keeffe, and you have stupid laws in place that make zero sense. You get games ruined. Just like the Freddie Steward Red Card. England tried their best to compete, and were better than Ireland for most of the game, but you can't win 14v15. It ruined a great game that would've gone down to the wire. Instead, the officials just gifted Ireland the 6 Nations, without making them earn it in the last game. Don't get me started on players like Sexton crying to the ref for red cards, That also plays it part. That's how we get soccer, when we have captain actively moaning to the ref, to get players sent off. It's disgraceful.
Dear World Rugby... Are These Paid Professionals??? | South Africa vs England Autumn Series 2022
World Rugby, you have got to stop this. How on earth do you explain the performances of Angus Gardner and Ben Whitehouse last night? Last night in the Springboks vs England game in the 2022 Autumn Nations Series we witnessed what happens when you put a incompetent ref and combine it with an equally incompetent TMO, the results were astonishing. The amount of mistakes and miscalls they made was incredible, I don't even know where to start. Let's just start with the 2 tries. With the Kurt-Lee Arendse try, how was that try not reviewed? First off we have a clear case of blocking where Arendse changes his lane after seeing where the England chaser is, which blocks him just enough for Willemse to step outside and create a break. Then Willemse makes a very questionable pass that looked forward to me. So we've got 2 incidents that would've meant no try to SA, yet they didn't even officially review it. Angus asked the TMO to check it quickly and within 3 seconds Ben Whitehouse responded that it was okay. Such a big moment in the game, the TMO takes 3 seconds to award I try. I'm not convinced he even checked the replays. Even if we're only looking at the Willemse pass, you can see the direction of his hands are forward, and would explain why the pass looked forward. Yet, there was no review. But let's skip ahead, let's look at Eben Etzebeth's try. Again, how on earth does that not get reviewed? Let's forget about the sealing off before the try, let's just focus on the try itself. The ball gets lost forward by Faf de Klerk, Eben is offside and off his feet, yet he picks the ball up despite being offside and off his feet, he then proceeds to score. There could've been 3 penalties against Eben but instead the ref didn't see any of it, same with the TMO. Now the question is, how on earth can Ben Whitehouse be a TMO if he clearly has no idea about the laws? What the hell. The only good thing they did that entire game was the red card for Thomas du Toit, there was no defending that. It was a reckless tackle and they dealt with it correctly. But in saying that, then there were 2 other incidents where Bongi takes a shoulder to the head, he appeals to the ref, the ref shuts him down. Siya Kolisi then goes to the ref, tells him about it. And Angus just tells him he didn't see it, so unless the TMO says something he can't do it. Which is lies of course. Anyhow, then we have Ben Whitehouse doing nothing. He didn't event check it. Then there was also the last moment of the game where the England lock comes from the side of a ruck and lifts Jaden Hendrikse by his lower limb, and then flips him through the horizontal. Now this happens directly in front of the ref, and he ignores it. Only 30 seconds later after the AR tells him about it, he blows his whistle. Then to make it worse, they don't even check it on replay. It should've been a yellow at least, but they just did nothing. This was probably one of the worst officiated games of the year. Games like this shows why Rassie did what he did. This can't continue. Eddie Jones should rather fight with Rassie than against him with this issue. Coaches seriously need to start working together and calling out World Rugby's protocols regarding match officials, else we're never going to see improvement
Rugby Referee Analysis | All Blacks vs England Autumn Series 2022
Again, World Rugby giving me lots of content to work with. They talk about their "Trust-based coach/match officials feedback process", yet Brian MacNeice goes on to TMO the All Blacks vs England game, a week after he had a horrible TMO performance in the South Africa vs France game. How on earth are we supposed to believe World Rugby and their "Review Process" when the same bad officials keep officiating at the highest profile games, even after making game costly mistakes. So here is the video on a video of the England vs All Blacks game, where Brian MacNeice directly influenced the result of the game with horrible decision in the TMO booth. The biggest mistake was him lying on live TV about seeing a grounding when there was absolutely no angle that showed any grounding on the try. The original decision was no try, so he had to see "Clear Evidence" to overturn it. The replay showed the ball being on the hand off an All Black player and never touching the ground, the ball the gets pushed back and they show an angle where there is a hand in front of the camera where nobody on earth can see any type of grounding. There was no visual of the ball touching the ground, and what does World Rugby's TMO say? "The ball is grounded" how on earth is that possible to happen in a high profile game like this? Not to mention the double movement before the try was scored. But apparently the Northern Hemisphere ignores double movement, you're allowed to be on your head and elbow and crawl forward, as long as your knee doesn't touch the ground. Then he also misses a clear headbutt by Ellis Genge on Whitelock where they even show the replay, where Genge goes in with no arms makes direct contact with Whitelock's head, and nothing happens yet according to World Rugby's interpretation of head contact, that is a clear red card offence. He also misses a clear no arms tackle by England 2 on an All Black player where he dived into his knees with no arms, they even asked the ref to go to the TMO, and nothing happened. So another weekend where the best team on the field doesn't win because the TMO or Ref was horrible. But yeah, let's just trust World Rugby when they tell us there is a "review process". Will try and post another video later today on one of the games from yesterday. But will most likely be tomorrow Just lastly, there is no conspiracy of referees against South Africa, there is a problem with Officiating and World Rugby in general. Where there is no accountability at all. This weekend proved the exact same thing, referees and TMO are allowed to make crucial mistakes and not face any consequences for their performances. World Rugby is trying to hide it, and this next few months I will expose them for it. This is not something that happens just against South Africa, this is a problem all the teams are facing.
Dear World Rugby... WTF Was Wayne Barnes Doing??? | South Africa vs France 2022 Autumn Series
So Dear World Rugby, Wayne Barnes is the best referee you have to offer? I hope you witness this South Africa vs France game where your best referee absolutely choked in the last 15 minutes. I've never seen a ref be so affected by crowd noise as Wayne Barnes was last night, it's incredible that a referee with over a 100 caps, could not handle France playing against the Springboks, the moment was too big for him and he choked. He started off well and just got worse and worse as the game went along. Let's start with the good, the two red cards, I don't think anyone can argue with them, he dealt with it correctly and it didn't take long for and the tmo to get to their decisions, so I can compliment him for that. But that is where it ends. There were 2 other incidents that simply went unnoticed thanks to poor refereeing, and disgraceful acts from the TV director who simply cut out all important angles when it was required. The first instance was an South African Lineout, where Franco Mostert goes up for the ball, then he gets kicked in the Face by a French jumper, after he gets kicked, he gets a knee to his head and the ref and AR just ignores it. They then show the replay, which cuts out as it shows the slow motion of Franco getting kicked in the face, that is great TV from the broadcaster. Then the other one was Cheslin Kolbe running with the ball, stepping inside and getting a shoulder right into his face from a French player, the play never gets spotted. The tmo never sees it, then the replay again cuts out before they show the illegal hit, that is just disgraceful. Again, He got Pieter Steph Du Toit's and Antoine Dupont's red cards spot on, but simply ignored all the other instances. Then there is the sealing off penalty against Eben at the start of the game. This was a soft penalty and I point this out as important, because Wayne Barnes simply ignores France doing it the whole game after that. So if he is going to penalize South Africa for it, why does he ignore it the entire game after that penalty? Why? Not to mention Wayne Barnes continuing to let play go on after Jonathan Danty took the shot to the head by Pieter Steph du Toit. Danty is laying there motionless on the ground after that hit, and Barnes just continues to let play go on, even after the play is literally running into Danty. What about Player Safety? Then there is the Deon Fourie Yellow card, prior to that SA gets a lineout 5m from the French line. The French concede 2 penalties in a row by collapsing the maul, the 2nd one being cynical as the maul is going forward toward the line before it is collapsed. Siya asks ref about warning, but Wayne Barnes says no, it's only been 2 penalties in that region so far. Then SA goes to touch again. France comes in from the side, and shoves early, they illegaly stop the maul, but the ref misses everything and they stop the maul. Luckily the Springboks scored in that sequence, but France got no card despite multiple infringements 5m from the line. Fast forward now to the Deon Fourie incident. First off the lineout is clear obstruction. The Jumper loses his bind to the ariving player as he transfers the ball, which means the ball should come out immediately or it's obstruction, instead the ref misses it. The maul forward and Deon Fourie eventually collapses it. This was the first penalty by SA in their 22m region in a very long time, they got no warning as well. But Wayne Barnes gives Deon a yellow card without hesitation. So where the hell is the consistency? Then there is the try. In what world was that a legal try? The French player is literally elbow down, head down on the ground when he is short the first time. He then goes again but is stopped by de Allende, he then even goes for a 3rd time when he crawls to score the "Try", and Wayne Barnes gives the try, even though it was the clearest of clear double movements you will ever see. The TMO also confirmed the try which makes no sense at all. Honestly I can say so much more, but just watch the video, it's hard to explain. The stuff that happens in the last 20 minutes is absolutely ridiculous. How many more games are going to be affected by officiating before refs are held accountable? Here was an example of World Rugby's best referee, and he choked in the biggest moment. Will he be punished? Will he face the consequences? Or will the Northern Hemisphere fans make excuses for him? How many screw ups do you need to see, to see how bad officiating has become? When will you wake up to it? Stop believing World Rugby, their review system is complete BS and everyone knows it, except the Northern Hemisphere fans. Rassie Erasmus did the right thing when he exposed World Rugby, they can't hide anymore. They should face the truth. The "Officiating" Team" TMO: Brian MacNeice Referee: Wayne Barnes Assistant Referees: Karl Dickson and Christophe Ridley
Dear World Rugby... WTF Did We Just Watch??? | South Africa vs Ireland Autumn Series 2022
The title says is it all to be honest, I've never seen a referee be as one sided as this game. I was absolutely dumbfounded after watching the South Africa vs Ireland game, it was supposed to be a massive clash between two giants of the game, yet all we got was the referee making mistake after mistake after mistake. Also conveniently all those mistakes happened to go against the Springboks, the ref simply ignored anything that Ireland did wrong. Where to start? How about Ireland's first try, let's look back a few moments before that. Kolbe goes for an up and under, which South Africa regathers when Pieter-Steph Du Toit takes it, and loses it backwards, yet the ref somehow says that South Africa lost it forward, so he gives scrum to Ireland. SO let's go to the scrum, they have the feed. The springboks pressures their scrum, their scrumhalf is under massive pressure and in the process of trying to pass, Jaden Hendrikse hits his arm and he knocks the ball on. Yet, the ref somehow says Hendrikse lost it forward. So Ireland gets the the scrum again, the get the feed. Immediately after the feed, their Tight head collapses the ball, his head hits the ground immediately, while Steven Kitshoff is still up because he did nothing wrong. Yet, the ref somehow makes up a penalty and says Kitshoff went down, despite the evidence completely contradicting what the ref saw. So 3 crucial mistakes in quick succession, surely it can't get worse, but it does. Ireland gets the Lineout, off the lineout the ball goes to Sexton, who gives a massive forward pass when he got hit by Jesse Kriel, the ref just ignores it. They then go on to get another penalty which leads to their first try. So 4 crucial mistakes by the ref, all against the Springboks, gives Ireland a free try. Then later in the game the following happens. Ireland kicks the ball, Damian Willemse regathers it, he gets tackles. Ireland now tries to counter ruck with their hooker, Dan Sheehan, who then puts his boot out and kicks the ball out of the ruck. Ireland then regathers, and goes on the counter attack. The ball goes to their prop, Andrew Porter, who gives a questionable pass that looked forward, to Finlay Bealham, who passes it to the backline. This whole move ends up in Ireland scoring their 2nd try by the likes of Mack Hansen. The ref then asks the TMO to just check if they didn't go in touch when they turned the ball over at the ruck. He completely ignores the ball being kicked out or the potential forward pass. Then the ref's inconstancy truly showed it's colors at the end of the game. Franco Mostert makes tackle, he then gets up to start counter rucking, while counter rucking, he kicks the ball out the exact same way as Dan Sheehan. Eben Etzebeth picks the ball up with nobody in front of him and support players to the right of him. Yet, the ref penalizes Franco Mostert for kicking the ball out. So how on earth can the ref defend his decision if he complete ignored it when Ireland did it? How is it possible for an international referee to be this one sided in a massive game like this? Dear World Rugby, You should be embarrassed by the performances of Nikola Amashukeli, Stuart Terheege and Andrea Piardi. The only one who remotely deserves any praise is the one French AR, Mathieu Raynal.
Why Was This Try Disallowed? | South Africa vs Argentina 2022
This is not a video attacking the ref or anything, I legit would just love to know what this law is and where I can find it. This happened in The Rugby Championship game on South Africa vs Argentina. This just looked like a clear try to me but as Mostert slaps the ball backwards after it initially went forward. The ball lands behind the point where it went forward from Mostert which I thought just meant it went backwards. So after the try is scored they go on to check it and they took a long time to go over multiple angles, despite the angles clearly showing what happened. So don't know why they had to spend so much time with that but any case. Then the ref, James Doleman, sees it and says something interesting. He says because it initially went forward from Franco Mostert's hand, that he had to regather it before it hit the ground, else it's a knock. That is confusing to me because how is it lost forward if the ball ends up behind the point where you touched it? I'm certain I've seen stuff like this happened, especially at lineout and it's deemed backwards if the ball is slapped back, no matter if it went forward. It's just a very confusing law that I tried to research but there is nothing on World Rugby that states it's still forward if the ball is slapped backwards because the ball has to be regathered. It's also a law that doesn't make a ton of sense to me which is why I find it weird. So I honestly couldn't tell you if this was the correct call or not, I have no idea about this wrinkle in the knock on law. If you know something I don't or know where I can find out more about it, please post it in the comments. Would love to check up on it.
HORRENDOUS Refereeing In The URC | Lions vs Bulls 2022
After a week of horrendous refereeing in the Rugby Championship we get treated the weekend with even more horrendous refereeing in the URC. Everybody knows by know how low the URC has set standards for officiating but what I saw in the Lions vs Bulls game was just horrendous. The amount of times AJ Jacobs made blind calls when he had no vision of what happened, was ridiculous. He was penalizing the Lions for stuff that didn't happen and that he didn't see. He was simply guessing most of the time and those guesses went against the Lions for some reason. You would think the home team would get the benefit of the doubt when it's 50/50 calls but not to AJ Jacobs, he just went with his gut and didn't use his eyes. The best had to be the opening minutes when the Bulls takes a quick tap with Marcell Coetzee, he goes over the line but there is bodies everywhere around him. The ref is jumping around clearly trying to see the ball but he's struggling because there's a lot of bodies. Then he asks the Lions players to get up, and after they get up, he then sees grounding. How the hell can you use that as evidence for grounding after it was 20 seconds after he blew his whistle? Of course he's going to see grounding if the Lions players stand up, you can't use that as evidence for what happened 20 seconds ago. Then the following incident where Simelane takes the ball up, and he gets tackled and held up by Henco van Wyk. Before Simelane's knees touch the ground, the ref shouts 3 times for the Lions tacklers to release. Throughout that time when he shouted tackler release, Simelane was held up with no knee touching the ground. So AJ Jacobs, again made a blind call when he had no vision because Simelane's knees was nowhere near the ground. He took another guess and it cost the Lions. Then there was the scrums, where he penalizes the Lions for doing something and directly afterwards the Bulls do the exact same thing, but the ref says Lions must play the ball. So where is the consistency?
