A Final Word before the Final
This RWC will be known as the Bryce Lawrence WC which is a pity because the All Blacks will probably win it purely on merit. However Springbok supporters - and some in other countries - will maintain that unlike the NZRFU, they didn’t need the help of a bent referee to remove the main opposition to the local team. Paddy O’Brien and his pals must go and the IRB should change the rules.
