Yes the powers that be are shit scared of the players but the fault lies with player's discipline. they have none. Its why they cheat and get away with it. Only 3 people speak on a rugby field: 2 skippers and the ref so any issue the skippers are called in and its THEIR problem. If you argue over a penalty the ref walks 10 yards further forward. Argue again its another 10 yards. Refs in football pander to the 22 egos on the pitch rather than taking control.

I think it has more to do with the rules: in soccer all players are able to appeal directly to the ref in play and when it’s stopped-appealing to the ref and discussing the game with him is not just allowed it’s expected. That’s not the case in rugby where only the captain can talk directly to the ref and only at certain times-of course, the ref can talk to anyone at any time!

Of all the referees, he's the one I always appreciated when he was in the field doing his job when Ireland where playing because he's fair

I only became aware of rugby when I stumbled upon a video of him refereeing a game. I read his book and found it well-written and fascinating. I'm watching all the games on RU-vid and enjoying them immensely. Thank you, Nigel!

This is not soccer.” 0:39 “I’m straighter than that one” 1:18 “The football stadium is 500 yards that way” 2:13 “No need to call me sir, I’m from West Wales” 2:46 “Yes sir, yes sir. Yes sir.” 3:53 “Err Christopher” 5:01 📱 5:23 “We will listen to Nigel.” “We have to.” 5:30 “If you don’t like scourging then your in the wrong position.” 6:11 “How many times have I refereed you? And you still don’t understand me still, I’ll shout louder than okay!” 7:28 “Somebody calls again I’ll be penalising it, this is not soccer. Is that clear?” 8:11 “Your both acting very immature” 8:16 “Off you go before I change the colour of it” 10:34 “There’s no reason why I can’t award the try, that means I can award the try.” I’m not a rugby fan, I’m a Nigel Owens fan. 🏉

The thing that makes Nigel Owens so good, is that he actually understands the game, wants the game to be a spectacle and isn't prepared to ruin it by incessantly whistling for minor indiscretions that have no influence on the outcome, unlike [insert every other referee here] [ especially Wayne Barnes]

Excellent referee, just has the right amount of rapport with the players without being overly pally, tells players what they are doing wrong and importantly what they are doing right (positive re-enforcement).
@kevinmould6979

The word is "reinforcement", that's why you had to hyphenate to get it past spellcheck.

I was old skool second row in league/flanker in union but also did a turn at inside centre, got bored waiting for the action playing the latter in onion, at least you could be involved in the game a heck of a lot more when in the forwards in union. I think the ball boys used to see more of the ball than the wingers did in union hahaha
