Ok so if you didnt watch the wheelchair final you missed the most unbelievable non playing incident of the tournament. The game had ref’s by an English ref on one sideline and a French ref on the other. Not sure if the bloke had bet his house on France winning or just lost it but he argued with the other ref, demonstrated up and down the sideline when decisions were made and at the end of the game went off big time!
I’ve heard of dodgy French refs back in the 60’s and 70’s test matches but have to say I’ve never seen anything like this guy! Bit of footage of him at end of game in link below and a fan photo of him flicking v’s and the bird at the crowd! I think it’s safe to say he’s officiated his last international game lol
