A fine performance by Mr Owens this afternoon in an amazing game of Rugby Union. He has that elusive rapport with the players - his empathy for them is repaid with their respect for him. If only this could be replicated in soccer - a forlorn wish these days, I fear. The Irish must be feeling so numb, but their effort was staggering and sets up a very interesting 6Nations in the Spring. |

Couldn't agree more, world class referee. Always good to see someone other than Richie Mackaw refereeing the game. Gutted for Ireland. Both NZ teams in both of rugby codes winning late on |

Diogenes and RCG - both beat me to it and couldn't agree more! :cheer: Nigel Owens is fast becoming - if not already - the best referee in World Rugby IMHO. Superb handling, empathy and rapport and you can see just how the players respond to that. Class act. Breath-taking match. |

An amazing ending which so mirrored the England V New Zealand Rugby League match and, as others have said, a highly entertaining game to watch. But the star of the show for me was Nigel Owens who I think is now not only the best international referee in the world but also streets ahead of the rest. |
