I was gob smacked to say the least when I heard the IRL was going to allow last night?s test match go ahead with a New Zealand (NZ) ref controlling the game, why you ask? Well it seems Australia (led by Wayne Bennett and Geoff Carr) are refusing to play under NZ ref Glen Black. Give me a break, Australia should not be able to pick and choose who they play under! The IRL board needed to stand firm and simply remind Australia that they are not in control of the international game, they simply dominate it.
