I didn't get that from your post but fair enough. |

Isn't it an automatic $10k fine in the NRL if a coach has a go at the referee in post match interviews? Might work if coaches felt that any concerns they raised privately were dealt with promptly. |

I’d be all for that.
The coaches just need a prepared response of something like ‘some go for you, some against. I’d prefer to focus on my own team’.
I have sympathy and believe we need to vastly improve refereeing standards starting with 2 refs but airing it in public doesn’t anyone least of all the sport any good. |

The big problem is, as many have pointed out, we don't have enough decent ref's for one per round, never mind two.

And the RFL don't seem prepared to spend money on it, as the guy who was going to come over from the NRL fell through. |

I would think, and hope that the ones we have would improve with a bit of back up on the field. |

Money was not the major problem. Matt Cecchin, after resigning as one of the best referees in the NRL, was twice denied a visa to officiate in Super League and subsequently returned to the NRL. |

I hope he gets a standing ovation and his own supportive chant. |

“But to suggest he is biased is the most ultimate sign of disrespect to not only Hicks as an individual, but to all referees”
As I’ve said many times I don’t agree with EM on going public with this, but I am starting to wonder whether those in the media are capable of understanding the English language.
