'Dale Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 Can someone please explain the inappropriateness of this? Surely he wouldn't have been selected for the Springboks game, so the fact that he had a drink with some Welsh people is moot, because it is the same game that he would be ineligible for. The ethos of being a referee is to demonstrate impartiality at all times, particularly in the public eye. It's a professional standard for a professional sport.

dev null Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 wish i knew what they were saying - that was awesome Go and stay in Calvinia or Springbok for a year and you will be an expert in th local vernacular.
Vetplant Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 The ethos of being a referee is to demonstrate impartiality at all times, particularly in the public eye. It's a professional standard for a professional sport.I get that sentiment. But I am more inclined to this:''The day a referee can not enjoy a beer and a joke with either the players or fans is the day rugby has lost its way."
Patchelicious Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 I get that sentiment. But I am more inclined to this:''The day a referee can not enjoy a beer and a joke with either the players or fans is the day rugby has lost its way."Remember rugby at his level is not just a “game”. We would all be up in arms if we saw the public protector having a drink with a politician.
IceCreamMan Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 look, it was a poor decision by the ref ,but in the greater scheme of things he did a good job and cannot be accused of favouring Wales. Every ref in the world would of sent that guy off. He was the transgressor here not the ref. I am sure the ref did not know those guys and it was just a laugh over a pint. Neither France (def not France) nor Wales will win the WC anyway.
Vetplant Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 I suspect something along the lines of the following to be released before the weekend: " I, awesome-ref-Jaco-Peyper, would like to apologise for the insensitive photo that was posted online without my consent. It was not my intent to offend anyone. I hereby accept the sanction of a 2 week ban that World rugby has placed on me and will in future be more vigilant when conducting myself in the public space. Go Bokke!"
Shebeen Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 Can some snowflake please explain to me what was offensive about the photo? I don't see the actual problem and world rugby are just pandering to social media- a labour lawyer would tear them to pieces in this one. If Mr bean has a bad game then I am pretty sure he will get the Wales v England match next Friday :-)

But I am more inclined to this:''The day a referee can not enjoy a beer and a joke with either the players or fans is the day rugby has lost its way." It's not sentiment, like a feeling.It is in the code of best practices, if not rules, for a referee in the professional era.
