Message: [QUOTE="Organix, post: 3517687, member: 8187"] I was also thinking about game speed for the reasons you mentioned. I think the issue is that there are no legitimate game-slowing tactics anymore. Once upon a time, a kick for touch 10 out like what Wighton did earlier would slow the game, give the team a breather. It was tactical, and it was something to defend if the team without the ball wanted to keep the game at speed. But no, the tigers get a ptb in the middle of the field. Now, teams have to do the illegitimate kind of game management, and it also plays into the refereeing decisions. Canberra deserved to have someone sent to the bin. It was blatant, but it has now had a HUGE impact on the game, and in these circumstances it is NOT on the ref, but it could be seen to be. [/QUOTE]
