I'll watch as many blues games as I can just to whinge about him.
You couldn't be any more Scottish on this.

jesus fuck. the season hasn't even started yet and we have a ref whinge going on
And yet amazingly, the appointment of Rasta as a ref for the super rugby season doesn't even seem to have raised an eyebrow
-
@MajorRage perhaps because he has been a Super Rugby ref for the last 2 seasons?

And in both seasons he has provided unequivocal proof, in almost every game he has refereed that he is not up to it.

Really? I've obviously forgotten any blunders - I think he's actually a decent ref at 15s at this level. He's a fucking awful 7s ref though.

That is one shit forward pack. Savea the only player above Super standard (other than Coles who is on the bench). Evans is a good 7 but average 8.
What? Evans is an excellent 8. He played there in 2018 all season and stood out. It's what earned him his AB cap.

The bat sign will be shining bright over @Stargazer 's house, I'll bet!
