SO we had a couple of years of the ABs trying to beat the rush with speed and dual playmakers, but it isn't working yet!

@Stargazer great result from the lads. Did anyone get along to watch this?

@Canes4life I was hoping to be able to go, but didn't have the car and public transport would have taken too much time. There will be a report of the game; hopefully some footage as well.

Argentina has 1 team and they’re + 19 thats about + 100 on average if they had 5 teams like us. Likewise SA only have 4 teams so the average is stupid

@Yeahtheboys although probably skewed slightly given there was a stat last year (or 2018) of 3 games I think about 58-3 for teams visiting SA?

quite possibly, or maybe one ref did 2 games with huge pen counts f/a and the other was sandwiched in there due to being the other SA ref on duty in SA that weekend.

@taniwharugby Yeah, the Lions v Rebels game IIRC.

Do u do updates for overseas teams?
@Yeahtheboys Nope, unfortunately, that would take too much time.

There's plenty of reasons why teams would have a higher penalty count in a certain area.
That said, when South African refs control local games between South African teams and international opponents, the SA team has won the penalty count on 27 of 29 occasions.
That's not a great stat if I was a SANZAAR ref coach.

Would be interesting to see the stats for three of the years with neutral refs.
I'd think Saffas rely more on being more physically dominant and forcing penalties while also being less inclined to "take the advantage" while under penalty advantage.
Still the raw stats don't look great.

I really have taken Mark Reason's articles in the past as crap but he maybe correct in this Article.
