Touchline has devised a unique ‘money can't buy' prize for the May online competition.

The winner will be able to pick a Super League fixture during June and join the referee and his team of match officials for a behind-the-scenes matchday.

Linking up with the referee two hours before kick off, the winner will experience the dressing rooms, the warm up, game duties with the Match Commissioner, a visit to the video referee facility, the post-match press conference and after-match meal.

The ultra-special prize has been donated by Stuart Cummings, The RFL's Match Officials Director.

Is this a joke?

no

As part of the experience you get to:

- learn how to laugh off your bad decisions
- be abused by the crowd for being crap
- learn that refs are smug and never make errors, they're just human after all!!!
- learn how not to make a decision as there are tv cameras around
- miss the obvious and make your own rules up

All this and more will give you a real days experience as a match official

I think it would be quite an interesting prize to win.

I think this would be an interesting prize and would probably give an insight into just how difficult a job it really is.

Get yourself entered then!

I definately will be doing when I am at home, access blocked here at work.



I would love to see what goes on behind the scenes for the officials. I call them week in week out at games, where I have my blue and white glasses on, and then when I watch the Sky games think they dont do a bad job.

Agreed, in fact the 2nd ref idea is good one. The more officials, plus touch judges that can do more and more camera coverage the better.

It's still not an interesting prize in the slightest.

To you!!!

Thank the lord we are all different, with different views and idea's (this board would be boring if we wern't)

No, The Borg is where it's at and you know it!

V good.

Reistance is futile

once sat in the stand at thrum hall with the refs assessor, saw a totally different game to me.

what a prize i must enter.



you never get to hear what the referee thinks about some of the abuse he gets. it would be good to have some of those answered but i think i will pass.

would be good to be with mr hicks when he is the video ref, then we could tell him what is a try and whats not, got to touch the whitewash mr hicks

Answered the first question but got a bit stuck with this one

Is it an 'R'??????????

is it 'g'? after all they all offer their services

Is it an "n"?

Now THAT'S what I call a prize!!!

you have until tomorrow to get your entries in!

would not mind posting an entry in your avator...

i could tell you now what this prize will be like.

you will here what the rfl want you to hear, see what the rfl want you to see and not what actually goes on in the changing room during pre/mid(half time)/after match.

Having already experienced this i wont be entering.
