What a cracking two months of rugby we had in France with full stadiums and some entertaining rugby to go with it. We had the final on Saturday night between two giants of the game in New Zealand and South Africa.

As the medal were being handed out, users spotted something interesting from Jordie Barrett, or is this a much over nothing. See some of the comments below..

It’s one thing if the refusal to shake his hand was race motivated but another because he didn’t want to shake hands with a corrupt politician who has fleeced the South African public to line his own pockets and supports Putin, if the latter, then I say “good on ya”

Its just a rugby player refusing to shake his hand. Can’t say I don’t blame him. Don’t make everything about colour man

The All Blacks took the loss very badly. But I would not have shaken his hand for personal reasons as well. #Springboks
