Petition To Stop Romain Poite Ever Reffing A Rugby Game Again

It is hard to know what this will achieve, but the Springbok fans are more intensely passionate than All Blacks fans when they want to be.  It has already had about 40,000 likes.  I am an All Blacks fan and did think he had a poor game on Saturday night which denied us of a magnificent game of rugby as part of the Rugby Championship 2013.  What did you think of his Poite's performance?

I think that while he had a poor game, it is going a bit far to ban him for life.  Surely he could ref at a lower level until he proves he is good enough for test rugby again!
