It is not what I expected

| 17-year-old boys passion is put on hold for 3 years |
Referee Chris de Beer (37), a member of the Blue Bulls Rugby Referee’s Society resigned from the society because he was unhappy about the outcomes of the charges he laid against a 17-year-old schoolboy who head-butted him at a rugby match. The Hans Strijdom High School boy from Limpopo Province (South Africa) is suspended for three years from anything that has to do with rugby.
Clearly that is not what Chris de Beer expected. His resignation from the BBRR’s shows his pettiness for the boy because he thought that the matter would be handled in a more lenient way.
His humiliation in front of the crowd might have been the reason why he went to the nearest police station and laid charges. For the fact that he laid charges at a police station made an expectation of the police being the ones handling the matter.
Do you think that the referee has all it takes to feel bad about the actions he took against the boy?
Are there better ways the on how the matter could have been handled?
The referee should have handled the matters himself, things wouldn't have gone this far but what is done is done. Now all they can do is to better the situation with the young gentleman.
ReplyDeleteHow do you suggest that he could have handled the matter?
Deleteand think matters such as these should be handle internal to avoid the media and other bodies agood prp should know that
ReplyDeleteIt was handled internly,but the handling was just to much to be kept between the rugby society(BBRRS).
Deletethey have to do deal with the situation now because the matter was not handled in a proper manner
ReplyDeleteAnd It would be better if they explain their reason for way they reacted towards the boy.
DeleteThis 37 year old referee should be ashamed of himself, he is killing the up-coming rugby generation.
ReplyDeleteHe was assulted for no reason,do you reckon that he was suppose to act as if nothing has happened?
Deletethey should have deal with it in a better way, because now the are destroying the fucter of the young boy.
ReplyDeleteThere is media exposure already?
ReplyDeleteYes, the issue is all over the media.
DeleteWow I must say,they took the situation way over board. Imagine what that boy is going to turn into now,because the one thing that he loved doing is taken away from him.
ReplyDeleteThe referee had no choice but to take actions because at the end of the day,the boy was wrong. The way the the BRRS took actions is the big deal out of this,they could have been lenient on the boy.
