| England vs France Semi-final - Women's Rugby World Cup | |

| Are there are any rugby union referees who frequent this forum | |
| as I watching the match this afternoon and left puzzled by a | |
| decision? | |
| In the second half, England were given a penalty and the ball | |
| was kicked into touch on the half-way line which resulted in a | |
| throw-in to England (because it was penalty). The resulting | |
| England throw-in (@57mins10secs into the game) wasn't straight | |
| and the referee blew up immediately saying "throw-in not | |
| straight" on her wired up mic but for some reason gave England | |
| possession from which they scored a try about a minute later. | |
| Can anyone explain how England got possession as the | |
| commentators seemed initially confused but never explained the | |
| referee's decision? | |

| I will watch it back as nothing was obvious at the time. She did | |
| give a FK against France at one point for an early jump but | |
| cannot remember when | |
| There certainly was no feeling in the ground that something was | |
| amiss | |
