It’s not a matter of how correct y’ play, you’ve
gotta do it the Clancy way - there is a penalty
no less omniscient dan earnin' ‘is explanation
of it; anyway, y’ canna understan’ dat ‘coz it’s
in d’ furriest broad dialect y’ ever heard on d’
footy paddock and not to mention his rulings,
that suggests an interpreter interaction’s also
necessary in effecting a rational translation
The game where he earned accolades was a
cracker between Georgia and Namibia; there
was a record set of the longest first half over-
time ever yet in RWC competition; confused -
think of what the players were going thru’ - &
it was bemused yellow-card-littered dithering
But we’ll forgive him for dat, at least it nearly
entertains; whereas blowing ‘stop’ every few
plays because he needed consult a sideline
coterie or TMO nearly blew his cover - & so
we lived on knife edge until the final whistle
peeped confusions-end and bright relief
