A big shout out to all our Northland Referees - without you we simply don’t have a game.

They do it because they love our game and I have never met a referee who wants any one team to win.

They are unaided by video technology.  They can often be tired because they have reffed more than one game - we are that short of referees.  They make mistakes - so do we all.  They are human and they are OUR game. Simply, thank you!

Be bold enough to give it a go - it is the best seat in the house.
