Quote="ROBINSON"Why bother with two refs? There are two linesmen at the side of the pitch who are perfectly positoned to watch for offsides and all those forward passes you keep throwing
When do the linesmen call the off sides it is very rare, they should mointor it at the play the ball and the ref should observe the play the ball. That would speed up the game and stop some of the nonsense that goes on.
Having watched the system in operation for two games it's gone OK, better than I expected to be honest.
It appears to make the referees job considerably easier with an extra pair of eyes close to the action, which can only be a good thing if we want standards to improve.
Nice to see Manly getting rolled over and interesting to note that despite Peacock allegedly coming off worse in the scrap at the WCC he's played the following two matches while Josh Perry is out injured.
