[QUOTE="profitius, post: 712413, member: 41524"] The standard isn't the best but rugby is a very hard game to ref. I'd like to see the linesmen policing the offside line in future and let the ref concentrate on the breakdown. The best refs like Nigel Owens try to let the game flow as much as possible. That means favouring the attacking side at the breakdown, letting slightly forward passes go, if a ball falls backwards they won't blow up for a knock on etc. [/QUOTE]
