This was in this months Rugby Magazine's referee profile of Mr. Rob Perle, a former Super League player from New York, who retired from playing and is now a referee in a neighboring society....great stuff

Worst thing about refereeing: Whining from the players.

Second worst thing about refereeing: Whining from the sidelines.

What the referee is thinking when people whine #1: “That guy doesn’t know the laws.”

What the referee is thinking when people whine #2: “That guy isn’t a good player and just got embarrassed by his opponent.”

What the referee is thinking when people whine #3: “That guy is out of shape and is trying to hide it from his coach and teammates by arguing with me.”

What the referee is thinking when people whine #4: “That guy is a jackass.”
