| Quote: BigRob "Yep, the ref's aren't helped by Eddie and Stevo moaning about every incorrect decision because it makes them seem worse than they are.
The Lee Smith try in the Grand Final is a perfect example. Lee Smith, according to the rules and ref's guidance, was onside, yet Eddie & Stevo were convinced he wasn't and so suddenly it becomes controversial. If that incident had happened at a game without TV cameras it wouldn't have been controversial at all.
From what I see on TV most incorrect decisions are on things like when the ball comes loose in a tackle and the ref has to decide whether it was ripped out or dropped and is usually incredibly difficult to see what really happened in real time. Then all we as spectators see is the super slow mo replay on SKY showing the opposite to what the ref gave which I would imagine in most cases is simply a "best guess".
And despite getting incredibly annoyed at refs when im physically at a game, I usually go home and watch it on TV and begrudgingly admit they're right more often than not.
A 2nd ref monitoring the tackle and play the ball has to be the way forward.'"
Agree 100% Rob.
Eddie & Stevo spend far too long debating 50/50s when there's a game going on. A decision was made, lets get on with it.
Aaand, they get 90% of those 50/50s right anyway.
Yes there are bad refs, but no ref ever cheats. Players have bad days, refs have bad days the best team almost always wins anyway

Yep, and the 10% they get wrong there's usually a good reason, like they couldn't see it or it looked like 1 thing happened in real time but in slow mo actually something else happened.
There is an issue with consistency from 1 ref to another which gets people (including me!) annoyed at games, but I think if people look across all sports they will find a problem with consistency of the officials. Whether its football, RU, cricket whatever it is people moan about the refs!

Wonder what Karl Kirkpatrick thinks about this, seeing as though he had to retire because all refs had to be full time.'"
That’s what I was thinking when I read this, double standards at Red Hall – never.
He always appeared to be a meek little thing when he was running the line. I just hope he doesn’t get too intimidated and become another home town ref.

| Far too whistle happy when he did our games last year - can't remember the penalty count when we played at Fev, but it was higher than the actual score, put it that way!

| He's shocking was at the cas cru game he was getting abused from the cas crowd he jogged off the pitch fine at half time but didn't come out for the second due to a "leg injury" and was replaced by a ref who gave everything to cas and I mean everything. Their fans were disghusting especially the scumbag kids spitting chewing gum at us whe the retard stewards watched and giggled to himself. Either way a ref who bottles it at half time doesn't belong on any field let alone a pro one.
In the pub opposite we met some cracking cas fans but the stadium was rammed with the dreggs if humanity I can see Cornwall from my window and I thought they were bad!

| Think we had him twice last season. 1st time he seemed to be completely against us, as far as I can remember we had a man sent off, a few tries disallowed and continually penalised for what seemed like nothing. Next time we had him it was the opposite, the opposition were getting pinged every 2 seconds for offside, lying on etc.
The comment earlier about him penalising the same team about 6 times in a row and from what I have seen of him, it think its possible that once he's penalised a team he feels he has to make a point of punishing them if there is any hint that they are stepping out of line. Its almost like he takes it personally that a team has dared to commit an offence and sees it as his duty to stamp his authority on that team. Once he's picked up on something, your team better had keep its nose clean or you've had it.
Some people on here have said that he likes to let games flow, I'd say the opposite. In the games I've seen and comments made by fans early last year, his penalty count is far higher than what you normally get. He seems to be real stickler for common offences like offsides, lying on, play the balls etc, but not so dominant when things are getting out of hand and tackles are flying in.
