Subject: fast tracking former players

nrl.com>>"The National Rugby League has today announced the signing of former Kiwi International Henry Perenara, Souths� Paul Mellor and former Roosters flyer Luke Phillips to its squad of full-time referees."

if you fast track one former NRL player into an NRL fulltime referee position then you are taking an opportunity away from a real ref who has learnt his trade the correct way.

the NRL should be putting the money into the development of young referees. this sort of development funding counteracts as a retention tool for teenagers contemplating refereeing against other career options.

im happy for former players to take up the whistle but they need to start from the bottom up. these cadet guys will be fulltimers learning the basics of reffing. thats pretty wierd dont you think?

They will be getting paid big money to ref school games whilst the average district referee organises and referees these games for little to no pay!
