Umps had to go into stand to watch the replay for TMO decision.. as they had removed the temporary big screens due to projected weather.

Both teams will receive 2 points

In that case we are stuffed.
I'd assumed it was 2 for draw plus 1 BP (as a notional 28-28)

Argentina about to win so that knocks us out I believe.

I hate the way they do the qualifying for these, so hard for teams to get through and they should have back up days or something

Yeah very cut throat, would still prefer to see 2 groups of 6, play 5 games each and then into semi finals. Makes it more unlikely that a team will get screwed by weather or misses out because of a bad referee decision etc.
Anyway we didn’t deserve to get through this year.

Well to be honest I can understand Grey being pissed. I can perhaps understand if there was a lot of water on field, and remember in a game many years back I played in where ref said he was blowing all breakdowns up quick as he was worried about someone drowning. Not ideal.

To be fair to the Irish, it's what the laws of the game instruct them to do.

The tournament is compromised enough as it is with 3 pools. Stuff like this just adds to the farce
