Referees are a joke

Referees are a joke. We can't find one referee for whom we have respect. Every game of League is contentious. Simpkins, Clarke, Hamstead, Hayne ... not one referee can play the game without influencing the result one way or the other. Rugby Union is no better. We watched the Welsh referee on Saturday blow Australia out of the game. It was pathetic and it has repercussions all the way from the ground to the outer reaches of our emotions.
