Henry would like to see 2 refs used

3:56 pm on 30 November 2010

The All Blacks coach Graham Henry believes two referees would help the international game.

It has been obvious in some of the All Black matches that referees have failed to keep up with the game especially late in the match when fatigue sets in.

Unlike rugby league, Henry believes one ref should be replaced by another when the starter gets tired.

He says he's serious about his suggestion because referees get into oxygen debt and then struggle to make good decisions so anythingto help the game would be good.
