Is this not the worst referee in the history of S12? Could he make any worse calls? The touchie isn't much worse.

Phil Kearns hit the nail on the head-27,000 fans in the ground, and the ref wants to be the show.

Yep that'll put them 6 points clear this week with the 2nd and 3rd placed teams having a bye, which should see them keep first place after their bye next week. It's looking increasingly like the 'tahs will be the only Aussie finalists though, with 4 out of 5 of the Kiwi sides all looking a good chance for the top 4.

Home final for the Tahs...I can sense it....

Although the trip to Dunedin in a fortnight will be very tough.

Oh, and in all seriousness, was I the only one who thought that was simply the worst display of refereeing in ANY professional sport ever?

The Tahs will be fighting for their place in the top four at the end of round ten.

Also if you play like you did last night in two weeks time, then our forwards will take you guys to pieces. Can't wait :D

I reckon the Tahs will limp into the four to be quite honest and exit in the semis - I'm 99% sure it'll be NZ v NZ for the super 12... again. The five eighth issue is unresolved because McKenzie shows little faith instead usually goes with Berne who is the worst tactical kicker in the modern game.

Was it a SA ref? They are really bad! If it is that young non-white SA ref, he is the worst!

I agree re: Berne. I'm a diehard Randwick supporter and I can see that (Berne doesn't even play 10 for Randwick, he plays 12!).

Honestly I think Tim Donnely is the best 10 the Tahs have, but everyone always questions him because of his size, despite the fact he's proven himself time and time again.

the Tahs needed a good hard fought game like this, with the finals not far away

their defence was pretty good, they may surprise in the finals, especially if we get home games which we should now

I thought I was the only one annoyed with tjhe reffing performance. I don't usually complain, but he made a mountain of bad calls.

He had a shocker last week in a game in NZ as well cant remember which game but head highs when they werent, just some bad calls generally. The guy looks out of his depth.
