[QUOTE="GCBRONCO, post: 2949372, member: 1808"] Gould on twitter makes the comment that referees are searching for penalties on the goal line and that not all penalties on the goal line are deliberate and that many are quite pedantic. While I agree that not EVERY penalty off the defenders tryline is deliberate (but you could say that anywhere on the field as well) teams are definitely being instructed in desperate situations to give them away to deny opportunities and kill momentum, why do you think so many teams will end up taking the two when they know the momentum has been killed, opposition gets to set it's defensive line and its business as usual? The commentators crap on about how a side takes the two in a situation like that and act all surprised and state oh but that side would have never done that in the past, yeah well it didn't change overnight, give the referees the ability to use the sin bin more and maybe, just maybe you might see things change. Instead if we went down their road of entertainment before everything, the games entertainment funnily would suffer even more because teams would have even less to worry that much about penalties being given either, you don't think a team like the Storm won't increase the crap they get away if referees were instructed to be even less willing to use the whistle to save the "entertainment", please.
