Thomas_Merton Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Matfield cited for late challengeSouth Africa 22-16 New Zealand South Africa lock Victor Matfield has been cited for a late tackle in Saturday's Tri-Nations match against New Zealand in Cape Town. Matfield will attend a disciplinary hearing on Sunday for a challenge on All Black scrum-half Byron Kelleher. The New Zealander was forced to withdraw after the incident in the 10th minute of the match. South Africa, the defending champions, won 22-16 after leading 16-13 at the half-time interval. What happened? I was unable to see the match - which was just as well - I'd have gone schizophrenic with the cricket playing at the same time.

Could have made the differance. All 3 teams are again fairly even and it looks like whoever can win away from home will win the series. Yes IMO a delliberate stomping by Umaga on Odriscoll. Should have suspended Umaga at least untill after the 2 games against the Wallabies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin Coles is an embarrasment to the Referress Union. AB's will win the next 3 matches and win the tri-nations. Wife and I are flying from LOS to Sydney on Wed for the AB vs Auss match, got my fake AB's jersey !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sold there souls so they did to Mr Corporate Europa. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No the are just "The All Blacks". Before they wore Adidas apparel they wore Canterbury apparel.That was before the professional era of rugby, but nethertheless, still a commerical endorsement deal. Off the top of my head they have also had commercial endorsements with Steinlager, Ford,Powerade etc.. over the years. I still remember playing rugby at school in my old Canterbury jersey, after that jersey had absorbed 80 minutes of mud and rain it was like wearing a 50 pound lead vest around.
