@loverugbyleague There referee has to make a snap decision on the basis of his single, real time viewpoint. Video refs have multiple viewpoints and the benefit of simultaneous freeze frame from those various views. It doesn’t mean the on field ref is inept if his decision is overturned

@KFC_UKI I ordered delivery from Liverpool City Centre but when it was delivered all the phone calls were made from a Sheffield number. As I was in Liverpool I thought, naturally, that these were Spam calls and ignored them and nearly missed my meal. Why was that?

@Rugby_Scoop This is why video referees, (TMO’s), should NOT be allowed to rule on forward passes. 2D Viewing angles can be so misleading.

@GavWilson @YorkRLFC Speaking as one who had been through it I can promise both highs and lows. All you can do is follow your team, continue to dream, and most of all, enjoy the ride 👍

@MichelleMellons @WHLeavitt Bear with me here, but if they are illegally in the country, with no Social Security number or any other credentials, just how are they “living off the system and sucking taxpayers dry”? I really am curious to know how this happens.

@totalrl It’s not the responsibility of any governing body to monitor and determine how a member spends their money. That’s is the role of the CEO and Board of Directors. Calling for “robust governance” is, at best, trying to shift the blame, at worst, simply sticking the knife in to RFL
