South African Refs NOT Biased

MyPR: South African Refs NOT Biased:

Well first of all the study that shows that South African refs penalise South African teams less is only half correct because the South African teams actually have a similar penalty win ratio away from home as well

I thought I would also do the Penalty count win loss ratio for the away games to get a true reflection on the weather it is indeed bias or if it is actually just a country getting less penalties than the other and the stats show a different story to the article that is going around.

South African Teams actually have a better penalty count win away from home with a non South African Ref as they do at home.

For the Stats I have only used games between SA, OZ and NZ only from the start of 2017 until the end of 2019

I used https://super.rugby/superrugby/ for all the stats and I have included a link to the tables for you to see

I also included all games at home but I used all refs as I thought with Australia only having 2 ref compared to 5 of NZ and SA it wasn’t a true reflection.

I thought I might throw in the yellow card totals for a look as well and as suspected NZ give away more penalties to yellow cards than OZ and SA.

Quick Cape Town Fact: Legend has it that in the 1930’s a local Cape Town newspaper claimed that Cape Town was the only city in South Africa that could justly call itself a metropolis. The public took to this description and because the word metropolis is taken from the Greek derivative of meter or metros meaning mother and polis meaning city, the nickname of “Mother City” was born. Although some people joke everything in Cape Town goes at a slower pace compared to Johannesburg – everything takes nine months.
