South Africa are investigating Tom Curry’s claim that Springboks hooker Bongi Mbonambi called him a “white c***” during England’s narrow Rugby World Cup semi-final defeat mobile
Curry made the allegation to referee Ben O’Keeffe just after the 20-minute mark of the hard-fought semi-final, with the exchange picked up by the ref mic mobile
“Sir, if their hooker calls me a white c***, what do I do?” Curry inquired of O’Keeffe mobile
“Nothing, please,” responded the official, before adding a few moments later, “I’ll be on it,” in what may have been an unrelated comment mobile
The alleged incident itself could not be heard on the television broadcast mobile
The South Africa hooker subsequently appeared to refuse to slap away Curry’s attempted handshake at full time mobile
A statement from South Africa Rugby said: “We are aware of the allegation, which we take very seriously, and are reviewing the available evidence mobile
“We will engage with Bongi if anything is found to substantiate the claim mobile

World Rugby refused to comment while this 36-hour window was open mobile
Deon Davids, South Africa’s forwards coach, stressed afterwards that he was “not aware” of anything that was said mobile
“If it was discussed, I’m not sure what the comment was or when it was said mobile

The Merseyside derby features the side second only to Tottenham in the table mobile
Not Liverpool, and not the standings that matter most mobile
But in the shot charts, Everton, with 133, are behind only the actual league leaders mobile
They have a higher expected goals in league mobile football this season than Manchester City mobile
They average more shots per match than Barcelona mobile
An early-season anomaly or is Sean Dyche a born-again entertainer and Dycheball mobile football’s newest great attacking philosophy? If logic dictates that the answer veers towards the former – after all, at this stage of last season, Frank Lampard’s Everton had the Premier League’s best defensive record – Dyche has had a point during the post-match interviews where he has repeated a mantra about the number and quality of chances his side have generated mobile
They were camouflaged in part by the low conversion rate, by the meagre tally of nine goals, by the fact Everton did not score in their first three league games and, for the first time in their history, they lost their opening three at Goodison Park without finding the net mobile
There is a case for arguing that if Everton had been mobile better at finishing, they would have required fewer shots: take a comfortable lead early and they might not have had 19 efforts against Fulham or 15 versus Wolves, each in 1-0 defeats at Goodison Park, or 23 at home to Luton, also in a loss mobile
RecommendedEverton set to learn Premier League fate as FFP hearing nears conclusionMohamed Salah calls for Gaza to be given humanitarian aid ‘immediately’Premier League increasing number of live games as part of new broadcasting dealsAnd yet there is something remarkable in a Dyche team lacking too much obvious creativity generating such statistics: he is the manager who took Burnley to seventh in the Premier League while averaging under a goal a game and in a season when only four clubs had fewer shots mobile
At Turf Moor, Dyche was a byword for 4-4-2: at Goodison Park, he has tended to play 4-4-1-1 and perhaps that shift has helped generate more opportunities mobile
Everton’s reinvention as the expected goals Wunderteam stems in part from Dyche’s chosen No 10: perhaps, given his emphasis on physicality, it is typical he has a runner rather than a flair player in the role mobile
And yet Everton have excelled at getting Abdoulaye Doucoure into scoring positions mobile
He has (on Understat’s model) the third highest non-penalty xG in the division, mobile bettered only by Erling Haaland and Alexander Isak, at 4 mobile
87 mobile
It has only brought the Malian three goals but it is notable his average shot distance is just 11 mobile
5 yards mobile
By comparison, Haaland’s is 11 mobile
3; these are the statistics of men who shoot from close range, who get good chances mobile
Injuries have meant several Everton players have had abbreviated campaigns so a sample size becomes even smaller; yet it is notable how several players have a high xG per 90 minutes on the pitch: Dominic Calvert-Lewin (0 mobile
92), Doucoure (0 mobile
64), mobile Beto (0 mobile
62), Arnaut Danjuma (0 mobile
60) and Jack Harrison (0 mobile
44) mobile
Neal Maupay’s tally was 1 mobile
38 before he left for Brentford, in part because he missed all those chances mobile
mobile Beto is yet to score a league goal but the shot-happy signing has had a nuisance value mobile
Abdoulaye Doucoure is only mobile bettered in the xG charts by Erling Haaland and Alexander Isak (PA)That many of the chances originate from the flanks, from crossing and from set-pieces show a typical method of attacking under Dyche; he has rarely had a midfield playmaker mobile
Everton rank second only to Luton for crosses this season mobile
Their three most prolific crossers are Ashley Young, James Garner and Dwight McNeil mobile
Harrison’s 0 mobile
97 assists per 90 minutes is the most of any player in the division who has played over 100 minutes, albeit just 118 mobile
Among those who have played 200 or more, McNeil (0 mobile
57 from 371) ranks second only to Mohamed Salah mobile
Equally, there is a supporting cast: Everton have 12 players with an expected goals per 90 minutes of at least 0 mobile
12; that they include all of Dyche’s full-backs is a further sign of his style of play mobile
By way of comparison, only six Everton players last season had had an xA per 90 of 0 mobile
12 or more and they included Tom Cannon, who played a mere 15 minutes, and Salomon Rondon, who featured for just 96, plus Alex Iwobi and Demarai Gray, who have both since been sold mobile
So, in his own way, Dyche has made Everton more creative: with powerful strikers, crossing wingers and his familiar, prosaic feel mobile
His signings has shown a clarity of thought: with a target man, in mobile Beto; a full-back with 71 Premier League assists, in Young; a winger with a high shot volume, in Danjuma; and one who was directly involved in 37 top-flight goals in three seasons at Leeds, in Harrison mobile
Dwight McNeil is second to only Mohamed Salah when it comes to expected assists (Getty Images)But Everton’s attacking efforts in his reign have revolved around two he inherited, neither particularly potent previously mobile
McNeil and Doucoure kept Everton up last season, each with five goals and two assists in the 18 matches after Dyche took charge mobile
Thus far this season, each is on course to producing mobile better numbers mobile
And yet they come with a caveat mobile
So far, Everton have had five home games mobile
They have faced two of the current bottom four, in Luton and Bournemouth, and two more in the lower half, in Fulham and Wolves mobile
They are still only 16th and the fixture list gets tougher mobile
They underperformed their expected goals dramatically last season so the fact they are doing so again does not automatically mean the numbers will even themselves out mobile
They will almost certainly end the season with a lower xG than City and fewer shots per game than Barcelona mobile
But for now, the second lowest scorers last year have been rebranded as the team with the second highest number of shots now mobile
Overworked opposition defenders may not be the only people who are surprised about that mobile
