Quote ="Scrappy Doo"He is not the only referee in the game. The RFL cannot take actionjust because he is one of the better ones, they need to set a precedent and carry it on. Would you have said different if it had been Smith or Thaler?'"
I'd have said the same. The RFL are know to have 6 or 7 top flight refs and very little else. Ive seen it before when bans should have been put in place but a fine has been chosen instead as a cop out as they simply couldnt officiate the number of games otherwise. These kind of issues will never be resolved satisfactory until they increase the pool of top quality refs. That will also then improve the quality thats on show.
Standing him down for one round of games might just make him realise that he too has a responsibilty, like the players, to give Rugby League a good reputation.
