'Remember - they only referee when you are doing it wrong.'

That plainly isn't true. Referees are human. They make mistakes. Plenty of them. Some make more than others. Some referees develop, others don't, like players - think Wilkinson v Henson. Referees are often inconsistent within a game, like players. They shape the ebb and flow of a game, because they make decisions. But not all of those decisions are a consequence of player error. None of which is to say that they any referees are biased or corrupt. In the England Wales game M Gauzere admitted he made two serious errors - in that respect he was incompetent i.e. Not possessing the necessary skills or abilities to complete a task effectively. He was in the wrong, not the player.

Based on this afternoon I don't think they needed to be so worried...
No, not that one!

Remember, whatever you do to the smallest of the backs you do to his prop, and you can't avoid the rucks and mauls forever...

I know you don't like it when I boo him but how else will he know he's wrong?

I wouldn't have Lavanini anywhere near the team for Friday, he's reverted to type with needless penalties.
