The abuse and criticism he has received has led him to this
moment. Sad news, especially the effect social media has had on
him. I can only wish him well for the future.
As an aside, I fear for the future of rugby. Bath and Gloucester
have reported significant drop in income last year, Newcastle
and Exeter have had to restructure in order to survive and
noises are being made in Parliament about the repayment of Covid
loans.

A good solid referee, who excels as a TMO. Have seen him ref
live and was happy with his decision making and involvement
Wish him well outside of rugby
