Bulls mentor Jake White was not a happy camper after his side's 18-13 defeat to the Stormers in last Saturday's United Rugby Championship final.

In his post-match press conference, a visibly emotional White made some bizarre comments on the performance of referee Andrew Brace.

White was clever to not directly slam the referee, but there was no doubt he was not happy with Brace's performance as he commented on the refereeing several times.

"It is what it is. I don't think we were ever going to win that game. I thought the referee was outstanding, he saw what he saw and we couldn't control the other things," White said.

"I don't want to get into the whole thing. I'm just telling you, there are things tonight that we couldn't control and we're never going to control them.

"I told the players to keep their heads up and, when those things change, we'll be okay. The referee was outstanding, you mustn't misquote me.

"What he saw, he blew. I'm happy. I can never argue with that. If you see it, blow it. No problem."
