[QUOTE="ncurd, post: 868154, member: 72205"] The problem if the referee pool comes from the various nations involved in the competition not from international body as a whole. So you don't have access to NH referees but in equal measure we don't have access the SH ones in the Champions Cup. Now the problem comes to size the Champions Cup has 6 nations of which 4 are producing international quality referees so the room for scope and you can find a neutral referee whereas Super Rugby has 5 nations of which only two have international class referees with a vast amount of experience (over 5 games). So the problem then comes of how do you manage the international referees, they have accept being away from for extended amounts of times during international windows but do you expand that to multi-demostic competitions? what do you do about the Pro-14? Do England/France suddenly lose their best refs at the tail end of that competetion rather than use them in their own? Until Japan/Argentina start producing decent refs and Australia international referees get more xperience your not going to be a neutral ref in a SA v NZ final for some time. [/QUOTE]
