Live update Newport RFC @ the Parc

 

Maybe his advisor had better get a copy of the video of the game from the Scarlets analyst and have a good look at it.

 

Those points Alun, you will find very hard to argue with.

 

That's fair enough. One thing I do want to add is that I hate critising referees because without them there would be no game and I do think that there too many 'confusing' rules. My biggest gripe about refs is what I call the big 'C' -consistency. We have different intepretations from different countries across the world, to different leagues(Welsh Prem,Magners, Anglo Welsh, HCup, Top 14, Guniness) and then to different hemispheres. That's crazy, rugby is hard enough to referee as it is without those factors to add in.

 

We need to get every ref singing from the same hymn sheet ASAP and try and reduce this 'different interpretations' excuse.

 

And again that's another issue, the charter for cheats as they call it. It's lunacy to have 2 sets of rules for 1 game, scrap the free kick ELV's before next season and we're a step closer to a truely 'global' game. What do you think of the southern hemisphere breakdown area Alun?

 

And you can come back when you can answer how you can see a scrum on the other side of the field to justify the yellow card!
