Article on rugby laws & interpretations


Interesting article & it is at the heart of our "debates". Please note There is a new law that says you can't say "it's the refs fault" or is it an interpretation  All very confusing to us guys that just wanna play the game in bare feet & use a couple  of jerseys to mark the try line & goal post.

 How the wee abs won two testagainst england and how they tried to beat the junior Boks as well


The last two weks have highlighted the problem. NZ has consistently been the beneficiary. Yes JW reffing is not easy I agree. But trends are revealing. Like the Boks when playing nz end up with twice as many yellows as the abs. I have no reason to believe that the ratio re any other type of infringement would be the same. 
This has had a massive impact on the results and hence my referring to the nz test and even super 15 results as being mythical. No other conclusion is possible.

Beeno: the article is about laws & the clear message is if you break them there are consequences, eg yellow cards. Please tell all Bok players. They are confused on this point. I am sure if you ask Sasuke San he will provide stats & Hakwa will provide pictures for those who haven't mastered the written language.
Best of luck Beeno . It is worth the effort

 All fair,  but reffs are reffs and not lawyers.  There should not be room for interpretations The laws should be black and white.
