I don't think there is any less camera's than at a sky game. 1 in each corner plus touchline cameras.

How about getting rid of the video referee?
It does the game no favours.
Let the match officials make on the spot decisions just like the players at normal speed.
They will get most right and some wrong just like the players.
It worked for a long time prior to its introduction to the game.

They suffered technical issues when the game was meant to kick off. This wasn't just a problem with Premier Sports but worldwide, as they were using the 'world feed'.
As a result, they showed the game in its entirety from the beginning at around 8:15pm, when the game was already 15 minutes old. |

At last someone agrees 
It seemed at times that Shane Hayne (sp?) was merely a holographic on field avatar for the video ref! |

It couldn't have been a try because Matty Russell doesn't play in the NRL so therefore it was no try ! |

Yes we got on great untill some nerd invented the instant replay. Then all we got was endless arguments that the ref was wrong & we(insert team name) were robbed. I would happily go back to no video ref as long as we had no replays as well.
What I would like is the ref to give his opinion before going to the screen as they do in the NRL. |

I wouldn’t give an opinion. It just means the VR judges something with a bias rather than simply his own view of it.
What I would do is split decisions between matters of fact and opinion. Matters of fact to be referred to the VR and matters of opinion handled by the ref. The only exception being violent or dangerous play, which if the on field ref doesn’t see, it is able to be referred .
So obstruction, laying on, messing at the ptb, etc with the on field ref. Onside/offside, touch, grounding etc VR.
