Just got chance to watch this match after being away for a few days last week.

I found myself watching the McCrone sinbinning with my mouth open.

I noticed Ben Thaler had his mouth open too.

Josh McCrone and Paul Sykes in a "give it to the ref" showdown for the man of spiel award that's what I say.

Why didn't the ref penalize the other Captain when he was back talking him?....seems like a double standard to even the most casual of onlookers.

McCrone got what he deserved, no doubt, but the other guy being just let off was wrong and just illustrates how Toronto is up against it every game....just so everyone knows, the other guy getting away with it all game is what actually set Josh off.

Double standard.

And by the way, a Captain of a rugby team should be addressed as Captain, or by his number, or by his position. The ref constantly trying to be familiar by using the first name over and over is insulting...sets a very bad tone.

Refs call all the players by their first names. The only time you might hear the word "Captain" is if the ref is calling both captains over for a talking to at the same time.
