Re: Women's 2021 (2022) Rugby World Cup

Interesting question - is it more important to have a female ref or to have the best ref? People will moan about the ref either way. Seneca where are you Best female for me - develop the refs too I think the ref has been fine from what I've seen. There'll always be marginal calls but she's light ye...

Re: Women's 2021 (2022) Rugby World Cup

1 thing I do like about the women’s game, over the men’s, is how much faster the set piece restarts happen. So much less time wasting at LOs and scrums.
