| I would just like to congratulate Mr Alibert on another superb refereeing performance at Perpignan - I can't recall any contentious decisions,the game flowed and he kept up with play in a thoroughly entertaining match. He has to be the fittest ref currently in SL ? Just watching his 'warm-up' routine was impressive !
I spoke with him after the game and he admitted his first season was tough what with the pace of SL and the language barrier not to mention he interpretation of the rules etc but he fels he has now settled in to the SL system and is feeling confident everytime he officiates.
Well done again Thierry !  |

[quote="King Street Cat":1wa9s43t]Some might look at this as being harsh but I think it's fair. When are the Rugby League going to stop persisting with this fantasy expansion. If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.[/quote:1wa9s43t]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6731.jpg |

Best ref in SL. Anyone that says otherwise is clearly basing their opinions on the fact that he is French.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Like all refs , and players , he has good games and bad ones , but even when he has a bad one , it'll be miles better than most fans good ones

Don't be so precious. If Starbug had meant to make a sweeping generalisation about the French he'd have added cowardly, garlic-y, frogs legs & snail eating, dirty, unwashed, adulterous, cheese-eating surrender monkey's. And probably added some kind of 'Allo 'Allo quote to top it off.

he is a strange looking man (I think !) up close,preammturely bald and big sticky out ears and really skinny - doesn't have much going for him really ?

Practice doesn't make perfect.

He still needs to remember to stop the clock when the balls out of play. Otherwise, he's improving.

Having originally seen him in the Championship--where at best he was average--I still see no reason to change my opinion of him--at best average. .
