explanation please [/ QUOTE ] Don't know if you were watching, but England seemingly scored a try, but it was overturned by the refs after a video review. I'm not hot on Rugby rules, but in the NFL it would have been an obvious touchdown; don't know what made the refs overturn it. Someone with more intimate knowledge of the rules might be able to explain. |

Re: *** Official 2007 Rugby World Cup
if any part of your body is in touch its not a try, his foot was on the white line i think but it was very close
England need to score soon |

Today I'm proud to be South African. You were the best team in this World Cup and deserved to win. As an aside, lol at all the English tabloids thinking Jonny Wilkinson would make a difference. It was a final, it was tight, the Boks were nervous, but any rugby fan will tell you that the Springboks are a much better team than the English. |

Re: *** Official 2007 Rugby World Cup
1 - best side won, throughout the game and the whole tournament
2 - I didn't see anything wrong with the try in real time and on the initial replays, but at game time I was watching a lot closer to the actual grounding, people have pointed out to me that he went into touch and back out before grounding with some part of the body 3 - fn arab crook officials lol |

Judging rugby based on this game would be like judging the NFL based on the Baltimore-New York Super Bowl a couple of years ago. England this year has had a way of making every game they're involved in incredibly boring. Thank god they lost, their back movement was just embarrassing. |
