[QUOTE="OhDannyBoy, post: 738706, member: 72517"] You've just nailed what Tony Manx can't seem to rap his head around. Statistically, Poite is poison for South Africa. It's not just the results, it's the consistent bizarre and controversial decisions and big calls that he makes, that always go against one side in particular. I believe in coincidences, but only to a point. I used to think he was just incompetent, but on looking again at the game recording, his body language on Saturday speaks volumes. Watch it again with hindsight now, and be amazed. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] This is what I agree with completely. The players, teams, coaches, and fans are held to high standards. Wanting a similar high standard from the refs is normal, and should be encouraged. I'm not sure I understand the mentality of some here seeking to dissuade the discussion of a referees continued inept performances by criticizing it as "bleating". [/QUOTE]
