[QUOTE="ABs2011, post: 589040, member: 57663"] Hi Das, Your observations are fair, and while I'm not sure which knock on you are reffering to, what I htink you will find is that in particular, at the end of very tight games, refs will be reluctant to award a penalty for trivial stuff like when the ball is not fed in straight to the scrum. Had Waikato been warned about that already? Im not sure, regardless I think refs dont want to effectively end the game on something so small. Might go for the "knock on" too if it was a bit bordeline. I highly doubt there is any corruption amongst ITM cup refs. Nothing I have watched suggests that anyway... [/QUOTE]
