| I think technically he's not a bad ref, gives correct decisions more often than that. But he just can't control a game from what I've seen

He was very poor last time we saw him. Massively inconsistent.
Setting that aside, I don't think his command of the laws is good enough either. For example, he didn't know that the penalty for a kick-off not making 10m should have been taken from the middle of the half-way line. Even Heremaia knew that and was trying his best to tell him.

I agree he was abysmal when he was last here but in this case he's right and Heremaia is wrong! Its true that if the ball doesn't travel 10m from a kickoff then the penalty is taken from the middle of the halfway line, but the penalty he gave was for a player touching the ball before it had travelled 10 meters. In this case the penalty is taken where the offence occurs.
I remember a case at the Stoop a couple of years ago where we were 2 points up with a minute or two to go. Can't remember the opposition but they tried a short kick off that didn't travel the 10 meters. Unfortunately Karl Pryce "knew" the rules like Mr Heremaia obviously does; picked up the ball; was penalised, and they kicked the penalty (from the spot where Pryce touched the ball) that drew the game!
I have been impressed in the past with George's "laid back" approach. Seemed to work well in the Championship but I think with that style you have to communicate with the players a lot more than he seemed to. You are right about his lack of control - situations escalated because he didn't take firm action in the first place. Still not convinced about the sending off of Scott Moore either; like the judiciary who deemed sending off sufficient!

| I think that was against Cas but wasn't it was given for offside. From memory the ball bounced of Pryce's chest/ shoulder, went forward and one of our lads caught it from an offside position

Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.

Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

| Nkpom, penalty from kick off infringement is always taken from the centre spot.
The Cas incident the first touch of the ball was over the 10 mtr line it was second touch that resulted in the penalty.
With a goal line drop out any infringement by kicking team results in penalty 10 Mtrs from line bang in middle of the sticks

Trust me his approach doesn't work in the Championship, please keep him down there, at least until the end of this season, don't want any where near us.

Why should we have the monopoly? Can't we share the bad news?
