Rugby Referee Analysis: Wales vs Springboks 2021 | This should have been a TRY!

Professional mistake, lazy to retire from 10m rules, absolutely penalty. Pulling the player back was too late as they must move back soonest. They still bending while the ball nearly fall on their head.

Ref need to fix. Or see doctor 🤔

South Africa are the world champions but who won all the prize s best player best forward best team best captain should go to south Africa but no

Players get punished when they get it wrong referee don't at all where's the justification for there fuck ups theres plenty of footage to prove that lions are the biggest cheaters in the game back by the referee and world rugby and your bullshit penalties none for the referee get punished only coaching and players referee have got to be accountable for their decisions like players and coaches

In my opinion Siya should've been more vocal about that, could've asked the ref to check the replay!

Apart from the guy who did advance until called back?

Would be nice if you detailed who the ref, TMO and touch judges are in each of these incident videos!

Watch SA 19 - in front of the kicker and moves forward

The player was moving forward before he was pulled back by Am

Nope.. one of the SA players goes forwards

Very bad

This is bullshit, you can clearly see offside Marx going forward. This video is just full bullshit.

The South African players clearly failed to transport themselves instantly back behind the kicker. Whoever was operating the South African transporter let his players down this time, or maybe somebody forgot to say "beam us back"!?

Rugby refereeing needs a desperate overhaul. This bulshit must stop. There should be an appeals system like in cricket. Simply crap.

Story of our lives. Biggest fear is when we go to the lions den and play in the north. The french refs will have a field day and even if they bring in dumb arse skips from Victoria or NSW, there'll be biased towards the North having lost SANZAR. Just you wait Henry Higgins just you wait

You can see Marx giving a step forward so on a technicality this try should be dissallowed, although if tries are gonna be dissallowed in this fashion Scotland's first try of this weekend should've been dissallowed, because after the crosskick, number 9 runs forward clearly offside and actually interacts with players involved in the try.

Even if they didn’t actually go back what were they supposed to do? Are all box kicks offside offences?

Dear TÂS, with 1000 plus comments to look through you may have well seen Squidge suggesting that Malcolm was not retreating. I see him initially taking a step forward, but then he appears to have turned. Can you confirm? Thank you

Um the 19 starts behind the 50 then ends up over the 50 am I missing something?

Malcolm Marx didnt retire immediately. Stop winging. SA rugby doesnt need this kak.

The Boks are constantly offside

Siya needs to be told to get on the refs face and stay there. He is too polite. In the Scotland game Hooper told the ref he was a joke!

If you watch carefully the players I. Front of the kicker move forward which is against the law for this kick as their first movement must be backwards, they can’t even stand still. This was the correct decision and anyone who thinks otherwise is either pissed or a one eyed South African. As always the video (like most things) has focused on the story it wants to portray and not the facts. sA were definitely the better team for sure and deserved the win but why focus on something that was correct?

It’s funny that someone who’s entire video is about proving the ref wrong is still wrong. There are clearly players within 10 of the ball landing who were offside when it was kicked. Therefore they are offside whether they took 1 or 2 steps back or not. Please research properly before posting slander. And I hate Wales rugby but I hate unnecessary criticism of Officials more

This is an example of a ref inserting their way into the game. That was not a "reason" to disallow a try. Fucking travesty that in the TV official age of rugby you still get shit decisions like this.

Dont know why you are still even surprised by the Boks getting cheated out of tries by refs. Its like our government, they are definitely gonna be corrupt. The refs are definitely gonna do us in. Luckilly we still won. Try harder next time with shitty technicalities.

These refs seem to get it wrong when refering springboks as though they manipulate the outcome of a game in favour of the opposition.

i wish all these people that say they refs got it wrong would go and ref a match! lets see how many would get things 100% right!
also lets look at the play, how many players were i front of the ball when it was kicked? 6 players NOT the 5 that were highlighted!!! the problem was the kick did not go more than 10 mitres.

Typical these days

As a neutral spectator, I believe that overall the match was even. Was a game of 16 on the field though…… Wales had the referee, South Africa had the guy from the stands 😂😂😂😂😂. If both of those tries (or in Wales case possibility of a try) had been given, I think the outcome would have still been very similar. What an entertaining match!!!

more evidence of making sure South African team is picked on, by incompetent referee who does not know the rules, wonder if this wuld apply to the All blacks, England or Australia

Take a look at Marx mate, he steps forwards, not backwards, its clear in your own video, laws the law.

They have always cheated.

"Yeah its clear" - Dickhead Ref

What has been missed is that they have to be 10 metres away and if you look at the markings on the pitch they aren't

Why does it feel like world rugby hates South Africa?

How much longer must we tolerate these bad decisions???? It's a clear try.

Once again the BOKS had to beat THE REF AS WELL AGAIN, this is getting stupid now.

This is 100% a penalty to Wales. When the ball is kicked in this clip (35 secs) Malcolm Marx has one leg either side of the line at 44 secs he is a metre or two in FRONT of the line. He has not immediately retreated from his offside position as he has now advanced from his position above the line that he was straddling when the ball was kicked. Yes, it is pedantic but that is the law.

The video I watched shows the whole front row moving forward before he pulls them back that is not allowed so ref was completely right to not award the try!!!
You need to watch the video again and clearly see them walk forward!

I say we take this ref outside en fok hom op

The better the technology gets the kakker the officiating gets...

Change my mind!!

With all the technology the ref's still get it wrong..... shocking..... World Rugby should be held accountable.....

If you look closely you can see that Marks advances forward before moving back. That's why the try was disallowed. This video doesn't show that. This video was designed to create friction on our (the Boks) side to blame refs and make an even worse name for ourselves. Don't be fooled guys. OP (original post) is just an instigator.
Go check out Squidge Rugby for professional and well made rugby reviews.

Does not matter Wales still lost and still ranked nowhere...... must be so shit for the NH teams to keep losing. yes Scotland won against a AUS B team...

Is there a law that’s says players are off side if the ball doesn’t travel 10 metres and players are in front of the kicker? I think they need to retire behind the kicker in that scenario but I could be wrong.
