Well call me a glue sniffing nut but I know the people giving us the feed own half of the Cheetahs and Shark franchises...

I've talked to a few TMO's and I get the impression this isn't an issue in AUS and NZ. If anything it happens in SA and France on the very odd occasion.

To give credit where credit is due, the backline and team have have looked extremely dangerous. Just haven't been able to finish...

Cheetahs took every chance they got.

In hindsight, shouldve taken the penalties. They gave away a heap of shots and the cheetahs kept giving up the penalties. Ahh hindsight is a wonderful thing

Yeah it'd be pretty obvious if you weren't being shown the angle which should be a clear one Rassie. There is no conspiracy, people in our country at least are professionals and are there to offer all the assistance they can. If it happens occasionally in SA well I wouldn't be entirely surprised, but you would expect anyone who does that to be fired eventually, it becomes clear to everyone involved pretty quickly.

hahahaha this is fucking comical. Every other pass I wouldve called fine apart from that one. Horrible TMO

love Joubert explaining to Horwill the basic difference between a cleanout and taking out the halfback. Too many refs make that basic mistake of seeing any player with a 9 on his jersey as a protected species. Well done, Joubert

How disappointing. You know the reds are screwed when Genia is off his game... Props to the Cheetahs.

Networks already controls rugby. They do the scheduling, draws everything. For how long did (and I am not basing anything on this) Fox use the Some people say line in the USA to use use any made up story without sourcing it?

Don't you think there is a clash of interest when the guys in control of the feed owns half the franchises that is playing in that game? I won't be comfortable.

And I worked behind CCTV camera's before. With monitors that is one tenth of the price of the stuff their using I could see a guy handing a firearm to a guy at the back at a intersection 50 yards away and it was in the night. How? Because I was in complete control of the feed myself and no middle man in between that I had to ask for angles from different cameras. We have HD in our homes TMO's don't even have it in HD.

TMO is nothing more than a show and for entertainment. Its for showbiz rugby and showbiz rugby is used to make it more exciting to get the viewer totals up. Just like channels run their programs over its time slot on purpose to make sure that they do not switch over to the rivals program. I won't say a word about this again. I will wait till the viewer totals get released again and see if one can see a spike somewhere

Disappointing - but we killed ourselves. Blew too many chances and breakdown in the first half poor. I kept thinking if we scored 1 try we were making enough chances to score a couple more but it just came too late.

Both Holmes and Daley struggled. Genia very forgettable.

Cheetahs deserve credit for taking their chances and their defence.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean people aren't out to get you.

Might not be a bad idea Biggsy. There were a lot of near misses.

Based on the level of excitement in a lot of your posts I reckon you might just instantaneously combust with frustration at some point. :)
