Until you have played with as many bad and bias rugby referees as I have you don't get to understand just how hard that can be to accept a decision like that which you strongly believe to be wrong. It makes a huge difference.
Maybe thats just because as im in amateur rugby and the society refs we get given often have the eyesight of moles or are somehow affiliated with an opposition team. One ref knew all the other team by first names lol...

Oh and i was dissapointed at the complete lack of tries too, dissapointing game for a final really but some really good kicking from the SA kicker.
