There’s been weird occurrences in 2021 so far, but one of the most bizarre has to be the promotion that Geordie Shore star Scotty T has given rugby league.

The reality TV man was seen promoting the Hull derby weeks ago and now he has called on the RFL to change the on-field decision-making of a referee.

Scotty T tweeted: “Hi @TheRFL

“Please sack off the rule going up as a try or no try, and just let the video ref decide. Also – bring the captains challenge across from Aus too.

“Works a treat.

“Kind Regards Turbo D*ck”

It seems not only is Scotty T a fan of the captain’s challenge that has enabled NRL sides to contest any decision made by the referee in a certain amount of time, he also wants the video referee to have sole responsibility for making a judgement on a potential try or no try.

Hi @TheRFL

Please sack off the rule going up as a try or no try, and just let the video ref decide.

Also – bring the captains challenge across from Aus too. Works a treat.
