I saw it mentioned somewhere he married Ivan's sister but I cannot find any evidence anywhere to confirm this.the optics in that arnt good !
I have no doubt that grant wouldn’t have done his best to give impartial decisions , but seriously what’s he doing there ? He should never ref a Penrith game in any capacity ever . If only because of the illusion that he’s biased .
And people could argue unconscious bias as well .
I honestly feel like since amnesty and Sutton have been running the show this has gotten way worse .
The nrl needs a bit of a clean out of its ref ranks imho .
His father played for Parramatta though.
He is a disgraceful ref imo and the Howarth try was a try and it was the moment that ruined the game for me.
