    It's not home town reffing, it's where the ref perceives the other team to be better so they let them get away with more stuff.

    Last night on the news graham Henry said that it would be harder for the abs to win the cup In Europe because psychologically the ref favours the home team.

    Sounds like a preemptive excuse for failing.

    Yeah, this. Still a load of garbage.

    All Blacks getting their excuses in for choking early then.

    What will be the excuse if say SA win it then?

    It's obviously true that winning in England will be harder for them than winning in NZ was. Someone else winning wouldn't change that.

    Yes I didn't dispute that. It's the home reffing that's the debate... unless they're using home reffing as the reason behind them winning at home? Which clearly isn't the case they were far and away the best team in the world
