And why would the ref ask Savers if they wanted the YC?! Thats was simply not on here...
There's an easy explanation, watching the video : https://nswrugby.tv/rugby-union/suburban-rugby/div-4-1st-grade-mclean-cup/216248/
Go to about 1:33:05 where Savers have the ball inside their half. Game clock says 77:20
At the next tackle, Epping 14 on the ground playing at the ball - maybe thinking he'd ripped it.
Whistle blows, and ref indicates not rolling.
One of the Savers' players was looking to tap and play on quickly.
As he's doing so, Epping 14 gets up and pushes Savers ?22?, and the ref goes the double-blast straight away.
Ref is walking to the mark, Savers ?6? gestures and must have said something.
Ref - who is already reaching for his pocket - responds with "Do you want the yellow card or not?"
Not sure anything controversial is going on there. He's made his mind up about the decision and is probably sick of players from both sides giving him advice.
EDIT: worth noting Black 6 was a little objectionable when he got the yellow card earlier in the game, so if he was chirping a lot it is no wonder the ref was a little short with him.
