And there's the rub. Anything he did well, possibly 99% of his performance, was utterly undermined by one inexplicable, yet potentially game changing moment of madness.
How he could penalise Fifita for the PTB, when you look at every other PTB from the game, is beyond comprehension. Salford scored at least one try from a PTB that was just rolled and thus catching the defense dead in the water.
Refs can make mistakes, I get that. But that PTB decision is not an area where a top of the game ref should be making such an error.

Spot on and the reason is simple, most current refs are attention seekers who deep down wish to be the star of the game and doing what he did very nearly managed it.
