The new rules suggest they do Moaner. I'd certainly be wanting any unmatched bets cancelled that may have been matched from about 14:53 and the Wales try obviously changed the market a load if anybody still did have access.

poor game not helped by some weak reffing, there has been about 12-14 pens in the game and no warning at all yet. players know that they can infringe with no chance of a card.

He needs to up his game and take control, call the two capts together and tell them to sort their players out or else he will get the cards out.

Report RugbyMan March 9, 2013 3:51 PM GMT
Exact reasons I do not know, but they split the site into 2 "wallets" a while back due to Australia betting license/laws. So I imagine when you place a bet on an Aussie wallet game your info is pinged through to somewhere in australia that acts separately from the betfair "British" site. Therefore when the British site goes down the Aussie side can still possibly function.

Bit of an educated guess really though.
