Wales Robbed by Duff Call and Question Marks about Ball


Why, oh why didn't Wayne Barnes go to the TMO when there was clearly doubt about James Hook's penalty kick in the 14th minute? The technology is there. Use it. It may not even have been conclusive but while there is doubt, there is controversy. Wales deserve better, so does the game.


 


But what a game. Not one of the Welsh bleaterd about the result or Barnes' stance. Good on them. That shouldn't stop us though. Was he right or wrong?


 


A few other thoughts before heading out of rainy Wellington to Queenstown where England are based.


Is there anything wrong with the World Cup ball or did Jonny just have a nightmare evening? James Hook missed a late one too, not to mention drop goal miss by Rhys Priestland.


Is there a better prospect in Britain and Ireland than Sam Warburton? A Lions captain in the making.


Didn't England look a ragged bunch in those black shirts, numbers falling off their back. Mind you, no-one in England complains when the Kiwis wear a white change strip. Too precious by half AB fans. It's the silver fern that defines the shirt not a shade of colour.
