Are there any likeable American golfers? Seriously I'd rather Putin winning the Masters than Patrick Reed.

You can't make people vote.

Most people in Ireland have the 'I'm alright Jack' attitude.
And the "alright" people vote while only a small percentage of those who aren't "alright" do so.

And who's fault is that?

Find that ruling infuriating tbh. Rugby player picks up rugby ball is not something players can't anticipate, so completely disagree that Keenan's action mitigates things.
The cries from the English have been about how he was trying to get out of the tackle and out of Keenan's way. He turned his shoulder and jumped into him, hitting him square in the head with his elbow. How is there any evidence he was trying to get out of his way?!

Coldrick by a distance. Lane is fairly good. Gough and Deegan are awful, live for the limelight. Both absolutely adore Kerry too.
Hurson and Joe are actually as impartial and good a referee as any of them but on ocassion have complete brain farts. Like they'll do a great job this week and in a months time be absolutely shocking.
For me coldrick is the most impartial and consistent of them all.
Impartial? Do you think ref's cheat based on who's playing?

A couple of simple fixes.
First, if you need physio attention, and you don't need to be substituted, then you will spend one minute on the sideline from when the game is restarted. No exceptions. No hard luck stories. Same rule for goalkeepers. Attempt to return before one minute and you get an automatic black card. This could be written into the rules as a player welfare need, at the drop of a hat.
Extend the black card rule to include "clear and obvious timewasting" and "attempting to gain an opponent an unwarranted card". Referees would almost never use this tool, but the threat of it should keep our game more honest .
