       Women’s’ Six Nations - Scotland v Wales - Kat Roche

       I’ve been enjoying a really competitive game of rugby union and
       have been really impressed with American referee Kat Roche, from
       Texas.
       She has loads of authority, explains her decisions to the
       players and the players clearly accord her plenty of respect.
       Excellent teamwork with her Australian TMO, Oliver Kellett, led
       to Roche sending off two players, one for each side. Both were
       sent to the bunker (Ian Tempest) and one stayed a yellow card,
       the other upgraded to a red.
       Kat Roche clearly can give a lesson to some of her male
       counterparts in rugby and football who seem frightened of making
       a mistake. Authoritative, clear and concise and not overbearing.
       Very impressive.
