It’s the opposite in my area. Not enough 5’s who have passed the fitness test, so some more senior 5’s who haven’t passed it this season are doing the step 6 middles along with us 5’s who have passed it.
Yes, it was a 5-4. I don’t really want to get into the grounds of appealing it and I spoke to my coach and he said that it was very strange and he’s not sure how the observer can comment on my pre match if he didn't listen to it.

One thing I do is at the coin toss, ask the captains their name and note it down on my hand. I ask them if I can call them by their names and I also say ‘my name is Dylan. Feel free...
I have been told by a level 3 to avoid saying things like ‘this is your last one or you’re booked’. It’s just incase you don’t follow through with that, it can make life difficult.
Or the opposition may start screaming for a yellow card if he commits the smallest infringement.
