Can we stop firstly yelling at u13, and u14 refs.in fact any refs.."you got a bitch then tell your mate next to you like most of us do." secondly if I hear any spectators start talking to kids on the field and threatening them at Joeys on Saturday like I heard at centennial last round (under 14as not my kids team btw) then I will post your name on here ... scaraby
Scaraby .... you raise a very good point ... I have seen a block of Joeys fathers from their 14As team yelling at games ... no doubt trying to influence the result, and maybe they have seen something in back-play ... but really excessive .... the GPS has to raise their standards to Junior Rugby
there needs to be a dedicated ground marshalls ... people who say, teachers will sort it out, have their head in the sand
and there needs to be more in way of ARs/linesman ... how can a referee check on what happened in back-play?!
and the older the age groups (particularly 15s and up) the more likely there is going to be a punch-up in backplay
anyway there are always lunatic parents ... go and check out the Mosman 11As, there is one south African parent, who loves to serve as the AR, and yet he is still yelling at kids on the field, ripping into coaches (saw him do this to Rod Kafer & the other Chatswood coach?) ... how this Mosman parent hasn't been reported ... its embarrassing!
