🏉 Sri Lanka Inter-Club Rugby League: Decisive Weekend Amid Refereeing Concerns 🏉

The Inter-Club Rugby League heats up this weekend with four crucial matches, even as refereeing standards remain a major talking point. • Match Schedule & Predictions: • Dec 27, Longdon Place: Kandy SC vs Sri Lions. Champions Kandy, despite last week's controversial draw, are expected to secure a bonus-point win against Sri Lions. Referee: Nalin Lasantha. • Dec 27, Havelock Park: Havelock SC vs Army SC. Unbeaten Havies look set to continue their strong run against a determined Army. Referee: Kelum Sandaruwan. • Dec 28, Police Park: Police SC vs CR & FC. CR & FC are strong favourites for a bonus-point victory against Police SC, who've struggled against top teams. Referee: Raveen Alexander. • Dec 28, Welisara: Navy SC vs CH & FC. High-riding CH & FC, confident after recent results, are likely to extend Navy SC's search for their first win. Referee: Jeewaka Fonseka. • Refereeing Controversy: The Kandy SC-CH & FC match last week sparked significant debate over poor officiating decisions, including a disallowed try for Kandy after TMO review. Kandy SC has formally requested Sri Lanka Rugby to exclude referee Gihan Yatawara from officiating their future matches. • All matches kick off at 3 p.m. The league is gathering pace, but improvement in refereeing standards is crucial to avoid controversy overshadowing the competition.
