Nick Bryant worst ref in NZ

In the game Blues vs Crusaders he gives a Penalty Try against the Blues for collapsing a maul close to the tryline - ok I give him that BUT then he yellow cards the wrong player Number 6 who was legally tackling the playing with the ball - he should have yellow carded Number 3 for Blatantly coming off-side and collapsing the maul.

He then gives another Penalty Try against the Blues for going backwards at the scrum near their try-line when the Crusaders clearly started shoving before the ball went in.

Blues player held up as he goes over for a try before the hooter sounded and he called first half over even though a scrum would definitely be a try opportunity for the Blues.

He then lets Manasa Mataele off for stopping a potential Blues try by deliberately knocking it - No penalty and no yellow card.

The last Crusaders line-Out throw was so not straight it was not even funny.

We definitly got a few calls go our way, but the number 6 never retreated far enough and tackled the ball carrier so effectivly came in from the side and the penaly try was justified.

As for the crooked line out at the end it was as bad as the one the blues threw just before it and got away with so the reffing was not just one sided like your trying to make out.

I do have a question re the 2nd penalty try (I missed it so cant comment if it was justified or not) but if it was a penalty try surely the offender must be sin binned as it has to be a proffesional foul doesn't it? I cannot remember ever seeing a penalty try awarded without someone going to the bin

Why was nobody carded for this?

Hakwa my good friend hate to see you on the end of crooked NZ reffing (Assuming this twit is a nz ref?) We know how it feels for sure!

Don't expect old crust fan to come clean on the matter.

The solution is that you have honest competent SA refs officiating your matches.

Beeno problem solving to help the kiwis out!
