It's a job nobody wants to do, and those that do do it are treated like shit. If a ref goes up to carter or piddo and calls them a f ing c bomb. Chances are they are getting some punishment. Yet it's ok for players to do this?

It's a two way street. It's easy to demand better referees. Think of the reasons why they are so bad tbough.
And I'd love to hear your thoughts on a solution?

Where exactly is it OK for the players to abuse the ref??

Refs make a rod for their own back by allowing dissent in the first place from the players.

Maybe they should actually apply the rules correctly instead of moaning about it

Yeah and making it a 12 team comp will do wonders for the standard as well

Sure, reply to one comment and ignore the rest. Whatever works.
I'd love to hear the reactions of players and spectators and coaches and tin hat enthusiasts if players were sent off for telling the ref to "eff off" after making a call.
Wouldn't have any players left to play.
Now, tell me how you'd improve the referees member? This is probably like the 4th time I've asked you this question...

****s can moan all they like about players getting sent for telling the ref to **** off.
Problem is they are the rules.

Always have been there. It is down to the referees to enforce them

Ideas to improve the standard of referees
Firstly enforce the rules as they are.
Secondly hammer the shit out of dissent from the players and officials of the clubs
Thirdly mandatory eye tests for the officials and their guide dogs
Fourthly learn the ****ing rules of the game
Fifthly remove the bullshit about feel for the game and fear of making decisions. The refs job is to enforce the rules impartialily not to dictate an 11v 11 contest

Number 1 ground in Newcastle, surely a little rain should not be enough to call it off. Maybe they can close the roof

I suppose the under 12s are training at speers point, can't halt their progress, how hard would it be to transfer the match to the all weather state of the art facility

This dog piss of rain was a blessing in disguise for northern. Players kept pulling out,the jets dont want to play it,etc . the game is nothing so what is the point of the chance of injurying players to play a second string youth team that we play each week anyway.

What does it matter, no one was going anyway. Why don't they just organise a game of Kelly Pool, they'll all get as much out of it and the Jets might even get a win.

Where's the development? It's coming towards the end of the season and the same referees are still making the same mistakes and the quality hasn't been improving. Players get better (well usually) throughout the year because they get coaching, practice and game time. What are the referee associations and Northern doing to develop their current pool? Sitting on their ass and saying you can't say anything to the ref is just a band-aid solution when they really should be looking at developing the people they do have.

I'm not blaming the referees for their incompetence, I'm blaming the people in charge that should be improving them but aren't doing a very good job at it.
