Absolute nonsense, as a referee for more than 30 years at all levels I can say with a degree of knowledge that she did ok

Elliott Kear really is a legend of the Welsh game. He always puts his hand up and always gives his all. If only his contemporaries like Flower and Dudson had done the same for Wales over the years.

Also Tonga lucky to get away with some cheap shots on Fozzard near their own line.

KK shoved him twice in the head for nowt , then shoved someone else forcefully in the mush and they just get to play the ball . I like Kasey but she’s been a bit kind to the players she knows

Nah. Nothing more than a push. It's rugby league mate. 

And honestly, this narrative of Aus refs purposefully favouring people they know is tin hat stuff.

There's always a bit of swings and roundabouts in ref's decisions.  I think if the ref had gone to the screen on the Wales try, they will have spotted a Wales knock on in the tackle.  Pleased the ref just awarded the try though.

Watch the France v Lebanon match from 2017. It was laughable.

Watch a match from 5 years ago to prove your theory? Yeah I'll be right. Not saying refs don't have bad games that can favour one side over another. But the idea there is some conspiracy (conscious or unconscious) is simply delusional.

Or Klein 2006.

Rugby Union the only game in the world were the spectators handle the ball more than the players.

Think I'll give that Women of Steel a watch. 

You sound like Dave Hadfield in c.2004.

I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

Or alternatively find a game where a British ref has favoured Eng/GB v Aussies.
