They've looked it on occasion. The ABs have been holding on their try line for 10-odd minutes, they've pretty much had to be.

Peyper absolutely lost the plot in the second half. Some shocking calls made and cynical infringements by the Argies not called. What a pathetic display.

There was a wee jersey tug, would need to see if it would have made any difference at all seeing as McKenzie and the other guy both basically ran into each other and may not have got to the ball anyway, which is probably what the ref thought too.

Should have at least been referred, and there was a lot more than just a jersey tug involved. It was a pathetic, chickenshit call by Peyper and the AR, who should have put his flag up.

The people who stood there filming for 10 minutes are pretty vile. If you have a problem with it bang on the door and say we know what you're doing, All Black Aaron Smith, quit it we need the bathroom for our child. Don't stand there giggling for 10 bloody minutes then go to the media after a sudden onset of 'outrage'. "I want to be clear we are not gossips or narcs" *proceeds to gossip and narc*

Yeah gently caress those guys. I am in no way defending anyone cheating on their partner (I assume he has one, otherwise why is this even a story?) They should be charged with invasion of privacy or whatever the appropriate charge is. Nothing gives you the right to go film people during business time.

The whole thing is an over reaction because of the Chiefs stripper thing. The NZRFU just can't get this sort of poo poo right ever.

L'Equipe reckon the TUE wasn't confirmed. Although it being a corticosteroid used for a calf injury is a fairly solid reason in any case - you're not going to get much advantage otherwise.

The agent claims he had a TUE, Racing claim he didn't need a TUE. Basically, Carter, Imhoff and Rokocoko were all taking banned substances but can get away with it because rugby has a very ill-defined window for when players are in and out of competition. This means players can take corticosteroids that have performance enhancing effects lasting well into competition but because the injection was out of competition it's legal. There's a journalist called Ross Tucker who's done a lot of work on doping and the huge grey areas that surround TUE usage, follow him on twitter for a better idea. We all know rugby has a widespread problem with doping. We can sit here and pretend otherwise as this blows over, then say everything's fine when once in a blue moon a pro player outside of the international scene gets caught. I'd like to think of this situation as a chance for a serious examination of the deficiencies in anti-doping procedures in rugby, but that's just not going to happen as long as the viewing public are happy to accept the 'nothing to see here' attitude that is held by officials, pros and most ex-pros alike.
