- Current Referee grade:
- Level 6
I was watching the above match from last Friday(?)
Near the end of the first half there's a tackle that ends up with tackler Kyle Eastmond (Lei) trapping the ball, in the now formed ruck, under his legs. Tempest tells Heinz (Glo SH) the ball's available which is debatable but WH dutifully digs it out of LHS side of the ruck and then then places it back in the ruck (further back - a good metre or so) and trots round to the back to get his pass away. Lots of Leicester arm flapping but Tempo lets it all go and manages to keep Leicester on side to boot.
I've no video but it's about 5 mins from HT if anyone saw it.
Top marks for referee and players keeping the game moving but I can't help thinking at my levels I'd be setting myself up for some right slavver and/or a free for all if I'd let that go.
Personally I'd have PK'd Eastmond for not rolling away.
Probably just another example of how different showbiz and weeds rugby are?
Like we didn't know already.
