BY Teddy Parker · Sunday Feb 20, 2022

They say rugby referees are becoming more and more a part of the action in the modern game – but this is taking it to extremes!

Super Rugby pacific kicked off this weekend with some entertaining clashes.

This moment from the clash between the Reds and the Melbourne Rebels has certainly made headlines.

With just minutes left on the clock, we see as the hosts pack down for a scrum just in their own half.

What followed was a bizarre moment that every rugby referee dreads.
