This idiot did not have the first idea what he was doing when it came to the scrums. The fool kept penalising Coenie for scrumming in when it was clear that it was impossible to tell who the culprit was given both Coenie and v/d Merwe started the inward movement simultaneously.
This idiot took it upon himself to target Coenie, leading to a card only to then confirm his incompetence by awarding a free kick to the Cheetahs after the next scrum with the Cheetahs replacement tighthead and the Lions loosehead both scrumming inwards.
So now that Coenie had left the park and the scrumming was still inwards, all of a sudden it was the Lions looseheads fault????
Geez how did this complete fool get to ref at this level?
If blame was to be apportioned, it would have to go to the Lions loosehead given that the scrumming ended inwards when he scrummed against Coenie and his replacement. The common denominator was the loosehead.
However, reality is, no-one can make the call as to who is to blame for inward scrumming when both props are offending at the same time. Best of all this idiot was making this call standing on the wrong side of the scrum.
Incompetence of the highest order
