Ask the Ref:

TWF has as ever started a trend - well I suspect that our dependance on Ecky may have resulted in this one - this is the latest column in the GetOnside Mag for the Wallabies.

rugby.com.au | Ask a Ref

this week the guest ref is Stu Dickinson - this is my question -

Stu - Loved the RWC Final -couldn't understand the mileage the press got out of that try !- anyways Richie McCaw constantly offside - why is it so hard to penalise him?

Please feel free to massage the question into a suitable form for publication - Cheers -


as many of you know I'm not renowned for my tact so if someone could rephrase this in a way which a ref of Stu's calibre can answer - I would love to know the answer

Richie McCaw is always offside - why don't you ping the bastard?

Open your bloody eyes.


Does that help ya out TQ1??? :D

ft LOL - yes heaps !

or"how much does the cheating bugger pay you guys?"


that subtle enough?

He doesn't pay them anything, they are just plain BLIND!!!!
