He obviously has a better temperament than Trevor Brennan

On one occasion he penalised Buckley for not touching. Buckley said to him "I did touch!" The ref replied "Yes but you touched before I said touch." WTF!!! The guy is a disgrace, he caused all the scrum problems with a "Crouch,Pause,Touch,Engage" routine that bore no resemblence to any other refs in the history of "Crouch,Pause,Touch,Engage"

Monsieur Poite est une grande twoite

It is my belief we might be better off without Rush (long term ) we have Diack Henry Ferris Pollock Falloon with Tuohy as a fit in if necessary.

Rush- when the refs catch on to his illegal hand off ( straight forearm to the jaw which would be not out of place in the WWE)
could be a red card machine

Playing Rush would deny those players the opportunity to gain experience

Rush will be 33 next month... did it ever occur to you that if refs were going to catch on to something, they would have done it before now?

And he has played a fair bit in Magners League and HEC so it's not as if he has just arrived from down under.
