The South African Rugby Union are to take action in addressing what is believed to be bias against the Springbok team when it comes to refereeing and the judicial process in the sport. The Cape Times' Ashfak Mohamed reports.
"Saru president Oregan Hoskins told the Cape Times yesterday that he has instructed South Africa's representative on the Sanzar legal committee, Judge Lex Mpati, to "take up" the apparent inconsistent rulings against the Boks during the Tri-Nations.
"On the judicial side, I have asked Judge Mpati to take it up," Hoskins said. "A number of stakeholders have complained to me about the lack of consistency in the rulings of the judicial officials in rugby.
"I have stressed to Judge Mpati the seriousness of the matter, and he has promised that he will come back to me in writing hopefully by next week. I don't want to say too much further, as previously I have spoken about the issue in the media and nothing has been done about it."
