What a marvellous name the Citing Officer has. Hope her decisions (if required) are as impressive.

Karl Dickson is a good ref and runs the game in a very intelligent way.

Karl Dickson is an excellent ref... part of the new breed of recently converted players.

Wasn't he a Quins scrumhalf? His brother played for Saints I think

There were a handful of female refs that were rising through the ranks. I wonder how they are progressing. I think  refs are contracted to the RFU so I presume PRL then hire from the RFU... so does the RFU get a say on who gets to ref which leagues, competitions or can PRL pick and choose who they would like on the season's roster.

I.E could PRL say that they'd rather not have a certain ref on the roster..

I can think of 1 ref who leaves both sides fans puzzled at times
