The ref was adamant about what he saw and that trumps everything else. The appeal would need to prove the referee is mistaken or bent and that aint going to happen.
I would have thought the rfl dropping him from reffing due to poor performance in our game would have been enough. But obviously he was 100% brilliant in the minute he saw the bite but was poor the other 79 minutes.
He obviously saw forearm & face in contact, but a bite implies intent, and closing of the jaw. I can’t see how that can be differentiated from forearm pressure onto a tooth from 12 metres away.
