I agree Thaler must be frustrated. He seems to me like the last semblance of decent refereeing in terms of flow and keeping hold of a game.

Having said that even the likes of hicks and child seem to have more grasp than some of the new group like Kendall.

Agree on Thaler. I like his refereeing style. The game isn't all about him, for a start.

The panel is the far bigger problem imo. Refs have always missed stuff, occasionally dreamed up events that never happened and exercised a varying degree of control. But the panel doesn't assess events in a split second in the heat of the moment. Yet they're coming up with some awful interpretations right now, to a point of ridicule. This has to change.

Hopefully Newman, Thompson and Smith aren’t too bad.

What's the issue with Thompson?

I can’t see where we could possibly pick up a ban from after that.

Parcell and Ryan must be facing a couple of games apiece if we’re going by the book.

Initial reports are another Hamstring injury for Newman.

That’s season and World Cup over + not a good one for future in a young player. Gutted for him and us if true……..
