    That's out and out cheating. I'm embarrassed.
    I don't know what your beef is but the Fijians scored from the ensuing scrum anyway

    One of us was being a bit thick.

    I meant to say choosing what bit.

    instead of a neutral referee and linesman making the decisions fairly. One team gets control of the big screen replays which can decide the game.

    Yeah the rugby. We're good enough to beat them without cheating. What was the point of that?
