[QUOTE="edinburgh_gunner, post: 112232"] I'm talking about the Celtic League refs. The Irish guy with the grey hair, Freeland is it? Is a good ref, consistant and lets the game flow and there's a Welsh ref who I can't remeber who has been OK - missed things but been consistant I've been at every Edinburgh ML game for the past 2 years, with the exception of a couple of refs they have generally been of a very poor standard and it doesn't take a genuis to work out most of these refs have been Irish or Welsh. Yes, I probably will make generalisations, but on the whole the worst refs I've encountered have come from those areas. Scottish refs are pretty poor, but I would say Changlang is probably one of the better refs. There are some absolute stinkers, and we always seem to get lumped with them at u18 and 2nd XV levels. I'm not saying Scotland's refs are any good cause I know they're not. In about 20 games this year, we have had 1 decent ref and the Premier 1 refs aren't much better either. [/QUOTE]
