Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.
If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com

Personally don't like it in our game and feel its a bit of a cop out for the officials, even if an incident isn't on report it could still be brought and the player could still get banned or fined

Personally I would prefer a ref to make a decision. Basically, ironically, I prefer the Rugby Union method.
At the very least, I would prefer it if for the most serious of incidents the ref consulted with the video ref to make a decision there and then. Although, I do accept that is somewhat a difficult balancing act to maintain as I equally don't want the game to be stopped every 5 minutes for a video review.

If the referee isn't sure and there's no advice from the touchie how can you ask the ref to make a decision which if wrong can massively influencey a game. Only if we change the rules to allow immediate video reply of the incident in every game could that possibly change things.

Hi there, been watching the threads for quite a while now and have decided to take the plunge and join in again  icon_hug.gif" alt="icon_hug.gif" title="HUG" />
I've been watching the boys for many many years, since I was about 11 years old some 40 odd years ago (work it out) and have thought about this sin binning thing. Why if someone has committed an offence which is deemed bad enough to go on report doesn't the ref send him to the bin while the standby referee views the video evidence while he's off the pitch and if its found a case to answer he doesn't get back on the pitch? That way the clock isn't stopped while the game is in play and the team who has had the incident against them gets the benefit of the sending off. Simples |
