The Wallaby Magic

Wondering how the Wallabies do it? After all, the Springboks were playing under the same blind, naive, unfit, incompetent has-been referee.

What the Wallabies do well, is probe the referee’s capabilities and boundaries.

Today, they discovered in the first half that they could get away with their hands in the ruck, coming in from the side, high tackling, shoulder charges, obstruction, early running and killing the ball. The only thing that lame geriatric was watching for was forward passing and failure to release.

The Springboks carried on playing a full 80 minutes against the full rulebook. The Wallabies only played the rules that were enforced.

In the end, the referee is an integral part of the game, and the Springboks need to learn to play the whole game.

On a more personal note, Bryce Lawrence, you’re a […] disgrace to the game, you lazy […]. Whatever you were in your time, you need to retire now.
