This episode was of course more famous for something that didn't happen:

Re: Monday 7 January 1991 (CoCV, Semi-Final 2)
Do we know which round it was? If it's not known, then doing a bit of detective work, I would guess when they reshot the round, they would give them both "free" sevens, and also when Gino Corr said "seven", Richard said "again", so it's likely he got seven in the previous round. So I'm plumping for round 3.

I knew of the WA****S incident, but wasn't sure that this was the game it occured in, and thought it could have been in a quarter or semi or something.
