And so the controversy wrangles its way thru th’
post-match tumescence - there is this obligatory
insistence that referees and TMOs need heed an
on-field review with less stringency, and the ‘red’
card resolution adopted only as a last resort - all
of course expressed by th’ losing team: thus it’s
open-slather on a matter where the rule is clear,
& player safety paramount; it suggests clarity is
now needed on setting penalties for outbursts o’
such rancorous crap as French centre, Geoffrey
Doumayrou, expressed to AFP news agency, &
published in L’Equipe; tho if we believe his view
the scene became a 12th minute conspiracy to
deny France their chance o’ a deserved victory
Meantime the injured player holds his tongue
