Quote moving on...="moving on..."A couple of years ago people were moaning that referees were all cop outs and couldn't make a decision for themselves. So they brought in a rule... The referee HAS to make an on field decision as to what he's seen or thinks. In this case Thaler sent it up as a 'no try'. The video Ref has to have 100% conclusive evidence that the ball is on the ground legally for it to be turned over. The replays didn't show 100% conclusive evidence so the decision stays with the on field referee's decision.
The Same with Tierney's Try in the corner against Wire. His hand looked to be in touch but there was not enough 100% evidence to contradict the on field decision. If That was sent up as a no try it probably would have been chalked off.
What do people want? We moan about Referees having more responsibility.... well this is what you get. It's sport, shizznizz happens. Christ, God forbid Warrington might get the rub of the green against Saints, They've been getting the rub over us for the last 20 years near enough.'"
Simple, once it goes to the video ref, its either a try or its not. if by all the replays ,camera angles he still cant (which I find hard to believe he wouldn't, but still would have a better idea than the on field ref) then should go back to refs decision , all this having to 100% prove the ref wrong, one way or the other is nonsence
