[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 1051173, member: 45598"] I agree mostly but I definitely don't think refereeing as a whole is anywhere near where it should be. You only have to look at Wayne Barnes, most would agree he's been the best ref in the world since Nige started caring more about sound bites than reffing but ask any kiwi or Irish fan and they'd laugh at you, he was consistently bad when reffing either team. Obviously soccer is an easier sport to ref but the standard at the Euros was fantastic, there were probably less controversies in the tournament re reffing than you'd regularly get in a single rugby match.
