    If only the FA, UEFA and FIFA would back their referees to make decisions and enforce them like this. Any dissent - yellow card, and move the restart 10 yards closer to the goal. If it goes into the penalty area, then it becomes a penalty. Yes, for a month or so there would be multiple red cards per game, but after that the players would be told by their managers to cut it out.

      Any dissent is already a yellow card. Dissent is also subjective for everybody, it depends on what they're willing to tolerate. Leagues and FAs 100% support referees in being able to penalise dissent.

      As a soccer referee I feel offended by this comment. It’s not the referee’s but usually the players who can not behave. Secondly, we do not have the opertunaties like the sin bin or 10 meter penalty. Thirdly, the clock can not be stopped so speaking to players is limited. I am very strict. If I hear certain foul language then the players are sent off. This I see not enough sadly.
      And yes, there are referees who are not up to the standard sometimes. This is the fault of the FIFA and the way they assign them or the national league agencies. That is politics.

    I find Rugby refereeing to be so toxic. When a ref makes an obvious mistake and a player points out that they have made that mistake there is this culture of belittling and gaslighting them. It may work with school kids but it is so demeaning to talk to adults in the way that refs do.

    • @andrewmather9076
      @andrewmather9076 Місяць тому +53

      Just a question; have you ever played the game at any serious level? Because I think you misunderstand the obvious reason for the referees' firmness in certain situations.
      I am a player nearing the end of his career and have now been refereeing alongside playing for 2 years. Maintaining control and discipline on the pitch in a game which can easily descend into absolute chaos if not managed correctly is paramount to ensure the safety of all players.
      To that end - whether I have made a mistake or not is irrelevant. I have made the call as I have seen it and that is the call. I don't care about your interpretation of the laws in that moment.
      A player who questions the call respectfully will get an answer if the time is right, but ultimately they are there to play rugby and focus on the game and not moaning in my ear. What you're interpreting as belittling and gaslighting - I'm seeing more as the referee non-overtly reminding the player that he's overstepping some leniency he's being shown in questioning the call in the first place (particularly if he's not the captain) or being annoying by having multiple bites of the cherry when provided with the referee's logic.

    • @schnozz87
      @schnozz87 Місяць тому +22

      That really isn't how it is. The referee's authority is final in the sport, most referees I have ever played with have been perfectly amenable to feedback and will usually admit their mistake of approached in the right manner.
      The point is that as a player, the values of respect for the officials means that you are taught to accept the referee's decision even if you don't agree, and many laws in rugby can be subjective and open to interpretation, which means if every decision gets questioned and debated the game just wouldn't be practicable. The players cede to the referee's decision, the referee doesn't let the players dictate and that's crucial to the sport.
      That's not to say it couldn't be improved! Refs like Steve Walsh were always notorious for being big egos and not accepting any feedback, but the majority are very civil. In my (admittedly low league) experience anyway.

    • @schnozz87

    To be fair, there are a lot of shite refs out there at the moment. Pearce chiefly amongst them. The incident at 0:32 was a complete joke. The munster player was thrown into the sign -- and somehow the thicko gives Munster a penalty for that. He was an utter embarrassment in the first Ireland/SA test too -- in conjunction with Ben Whitehouse.
    All stems from the fact that Barnes was a complete embarrassment in the last RWC -- and instead of making them take responsibility for it, World Rugby let him ref the RWC final. Two inferior teams -- and a shite referring performance -- made it the worst display of rugby at the most critical time. Funnily enough, they still let him spout absolutely shite and take no responsibility for being shite across the entirety of the RWC.
