Bill Harrigan has been Australia's leading Rugby League referee for more than the past decade. He has a profile equal to the major players - and has never been far from the headlines. He is very good, and very opinionated - and isn't afraid of speaking his mind. This book is his story - who he is, where he came from, and how he got to where he is today. It is most emphatically not just a run through of his best-known games. It's the story of a man whose life has given him a fair number of knocks, as well as great rewards; of a man acknowledged to be one of the best, but often disliked because of the job he does; of someone often considered to be arrogant and egocentric, yet a man who showed great skill and sensitivity in dealing with crisis situations during his time in the police Tactical Response Group.
