I'm with Bunter
I started the ref bashing a few years back. I was so upset I jumped the security fence and fuelled by alcohol I crash tackled the referee. I was taken away but at least the ref couldn't finish the game.
How much can the fans take? The refereeing is shite
They are pedantic little pea blowers with egomania that insist on putting their blueprint on a game.
Fairbrother was pinged at least 3 times with the Force attacking the Tahs line and an attacking scrum with their own feed. The Force wouldn't deliberately collapse a scrum in this position and at worst there should have been a reset. The ref frequently allowed the Tahs to refeed collapsed scrums. Ben Robinson is the best loosehead in world rugby and probably got the Tahs home from this one stat alone. He's as cunning as a fox and has incredible strength and technique
It was frustrating. The referee who has never played in the frontrow and is unlikely to have ever even packed down against a scrum machine, is making decisions on frontrowers. It's a farce
I wanted to run on and give the ref a snotklap.
I advocate a scrum referee (ex prop) should run on to referee every scrum and retire to a comfortable chair whilst the poonce refereees the rest of the match. There should be a scrum ref on each side of the field so the lads don't have to over exert themselves by walking too far. When the scrum ends, they just waddle off until the next scrum
