It sounds like today they put a Barker players dad at touch to help over turn a game deciding decision. That won their firsts the game.
Recent news has surfaced as the linesman that overturned the refs decision from a Cranbrook penalty to a Barker try was the Barker hookers father (Keegan Daly, 2).
In my opinion, this is not acceptable for a match of such high calibre. Surely this says something about the consistency of CAS rugby, this is a first XV game that is being co-reffed by dads and associates of the home school…
You don’t need an earpiece to understand this.
It gets worse. I actually read in my book of excuses that the other touch judge was Headmaster Phillip Heath. And they actually brought back Rev Henry Plume from the dead to ref the game... Grrrr Barker. Look. This isn't the place for delusional conspiracy theories when your team loses. Move on.
Congrats Waverley. I imagine CAS teams, and the forum's predictions would have looked very different if they weren't plagued with injury from the beginning.
There is far too much focus on the CAS selections being wrong. We've known that the teams are selected far too early in the season since they moved the representative games forward from the end of the season. Since they have done this, players have always been picked based on a pre-medidated reputation, and not their actual form on the season. I promise you, this isn't an anti-Waverely/Cranbrook agenda. It was simply just a struggling Waverley team (due to injuries) in the pre-season, leading to Waves being under-represented. Is this fair? Does this lead to the correction selections? No. But that's how it will always be until they change it.
I guess the theme of this post is stop beating the dead horse.
