Wigan Warriors - wiganrugbyfans.com • The problem
Ive been watching some old matches last few days from the 90's and it struck me that the reason todays games are not as entertaining is the refs have spoiled the game. The PTB back in the 90s was much scruffier and a lot of lying on but it made for a more exciting game without the ref interfering. Players just got on with it without the diving and complaining and the game flowed much better with less stop starts. Defences could get into the opposition without getting called offside for being too eager, again less penalties and the game flows quicker. You barely noticed the ref in those days, the players were allowed to get on with the game as humans rather than robots.
