Episode 32 - Refereeing ugly

Today, it's a solo episode looking at the one of the less pleasant sides of our game - the general increase in angst and poor behaviour on and around the rugby field.

We have a look into how to manage and deal with these types of situations, whether it's players baiting each other, angsty touch judges, coaches, replacements and spectators.

There's some helpful lines and approaches that we have discussed in our referee community group, so my thanks to those who contributed their thoughts and experiences.

I hope you can take something from the episdoe - even if you disagree with some it. There's no monopoly on the correct approach, and as Keith says, what works for him, may not work for you.
