[SBD82]

Merkina?

I'm pretty sure that's racist.

See? Minefield.

 

[Leber]

I Remember watching her in an under 20's game a while back when she broke the whistle from blowing too hard.

Many laughs were had.

 

[Ron's_Mate]

The PC police have outdone themselves again, I mean what is next?

Blind refs? Oh, wait ...

 

[grouch]

People who whinge about "PC gone mad" are the absolute worst

 

[Mogsheen Jadwat]

will be interesting to see how the players talk to her - whether they respect her or whether they just charge on in and try and intimidate her because she's a female.

personally i don't care, lassie can ref if its capable, just want consistency.

 

[adamkungl]

Good on her.

I don't care how hard she blows as long as she gets the job done.

Totally and unequivocally a PR stunt designed to gain cheap publicity from the lazy, politically correct media and deflect attention away from all kinds of problems in the game resulting from weak and incompetent leadership.

And also brilliant. If that's your agenda this will do it. A nothing game too so nothing on the line.

I have no reason to believe she isn't up to it or that she won't be up to scratch. She may well be a token but she might be perfectly able too.

Agreed.

"Mad" is such a vulgar and ableist term.

 

[Willie Ray]

Merkina?

Herkin?

 

[taipan]

From what I've seen she will do a better job ,than some of the current lot who need Labradors to assist them in decision making.

[Hardcore_Fan]

I'd smash her tho.

 

[Vic Mackey]

i dont care if its man or woman, i just want to the best person for the job in control. admittedly i havent seen her much in the 20s however i have found her calls as a touchie to be pretty terrible. the fact that she's been given a nothing game makes it stand out as a PR stunt

Or...you know.. it's the logical way to blood a rookie ref.

 

[Vee]

Good on her. Hope she's up to it. Hard to be worse than what we put up with every week.

 

[Bazal]

Haha...a handful of comments in here demonstrate why rugby league fans are still considered lowbrow degenerates by so many people....holy shit. Some of you low-breeds need to drag yourself out of the late 70s.

She'll 100% be a better ref than Maxwell, Checcin and Perenara. So many people complain that we need fresh blood in the refereeing ranks....but only if it has a dick? Lol.

 

[Incorrect]

I'd smash her tho.

No you wouldn't.... She'd smash you....

 

[Spade]

she goes well.

 

[hineyrulz]

she goes well.

But what about her refereeing????
