And the ultimate party spoilers from Joeys loom on the horizon next week. A tense week ahead at Bellevue Hill I'd imagine.Scots prop sinbinned in last 5 minutes. New demolished the scrum and scored two tries to win 32 .. 21.
Good outcome for Kings. Joeys won't be happy.
Backlash from Joeys next week?
Word from the benches that Joeys never really recovered from the Scots loss. Mentally they signed off. Three games In a row conceding 40+. Not seen that ever.
Yes, but Steve Walsh thrives on being the centre of attention - no TV cameras at Bellevue Hill. It's a pity, because if not for his personality, he has all the attributes to be the no 1 referee in the world. Somewhat ironic that the only thing preventing this is his desire for everyone to know how good he is at every possible moment.Was Yellow Card an example of Steve Walsh grandstanding?
Snouts in the Referee fraternity tell me that Mr Walsh was not happy to be appointed to a "<sneering> schoolboy match when I am a IRB Test referee, why can't I do a Shute Shield game".
Would be poor form from Princess Steve if that was the case, and I'd wager that there was a significantly larger audience at Scots than at Coogee Oval.
As I said, Joeys are the ultimate party spoilers. They'd be the last team I'd want to play if I needed to win a match to secure the title. Coming off 3 straight losses, they could be even more dangerous in the last match of the year.That is a surprise. Most of the Joeys squad are competent footballers. Conceding 40 points once is a mistake or bad day at the office that we all have from time to time, twice is alarming, three times..
If this was the Wobs... I wouldn't want to be the coach. Still reckon that the cerise/pink boys can bounce back.
<snip> I was on the side line when one of the players from Riverview asked the ref what a penalty was for he replied to the boy "Shut the F*ck Up". <snip>.
Not surprising. Back in 2011 we had to "escort" a Shore father out of Newington after he called one of the Tongan boys an"black c&%t"
I have no reason to disbelieve you. That sort of behaviour from a referee, if true, is out of line and has no place in Schoolboy football.
You should probably make a formal report to the MIC Rugby at Shore. Call the School Switchboard on Monday, and I am sure that you will be able to speak to them. I reckon that they will not condone that sort of language from a referee appointed to one of their games.
Inappropriate comment
