Message: [QUOTE="Clintos, post: 2098037, member: 2003"] FTR, I voted Yes, definatly, however I don't understand the point. The referees were copping it left, right and centre for incorrect desicions prior to the introduction of the video ref, and now that the video ref is in play, referees are still copping it left, right, and center. FFS, people are throwing things at referees as they are walking off the field. It is true that we are getting more decisions correct, but it's dramatically slowing down the game. I could cook a roast dinner before Russell Smith makes a decision. In addition to this, I think this crap about reffering to the video ref to determine whether a ball has been lost, or stripped is pathetic. I'm all for the video ref being a part of the game, but I think they should only be able to be refferred to for things like grounding, sidelines and offside. These are easy to determine, and should speed the game up a bit. However, this also means that more emphasis is placed on referees, and at the moment I don't believe they are up to the standard. They all need to go back to refereeing school and re learn the rules of the game. Maybe someone should invent some kind of super-glasses for referees to wear. haha [/QUOTE]
