My beef at the moment is that the NRL and Anderson need to work out what they want.
If they want to get most decisions right by using the video ref at every instance, then the game will be a stop start rabble like NFL.
There's no consistency as sometimes the video ref gets himself involved when he's not even asked ( eg Horo's tackle on JWH which was potentially a match defining decision ) but won't come in on another issue in the same game which is potentially just as important.
There's always contentious calls in every match but they don't get involved in every one, so why is one so more important than another?
So who's in charge of the match?
The refs can overrule the touchies, but rarely do, but the video ref can overrule him even when he's made a decision on the field.
However, they don't overrule the ref if he awards a try and the replay shows something untoward happened in the lead up - it's tough luck.
They'll look at something ten times that most of us can see in the first replay and others they rule after only one look ( like did Buhrer lose the ball backwards or not?, we know he lost it but...)
The video refs are meant to help get more things right, but most of us would agree that they don't.
Rant over for now.
