Referees Challenge
Referees Challenge
This is a great part of the NRL game and takes a lot of frustration out of some blatant bad calls from referees, you would be surprised how many calls from the referees are proved to be wrong calls & it gets justice to a bad call
Re: Referees Challenge
The English game can't even manage a video ref at every game, which is a prerequisite for the CC.
It is a good system though, if the facilities are there. I don't think it points to any great failings from the refs, though. And I remain in my long-held views that the NRL refs are way superior to ours.

Re: Referees Challenge
That possibly because the players are more disciplined

I agree on the whole, the only thing I would add is that the NRL is more superior in every aspect.moto748 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 26, 2022 11:18 am The English game can't even manage a video ref at every game, which is a prerequisite for the CC.

Money does not always deliver success. The Aussies have dominated this sport for half a century and it is not all down to money.fozzieskem wrote: ↑Mon Mar 07, 2022 7:20 pmAs it should be given the money swilling around over thereCharriots Offiah wrote: ↑Mon Mar 07, 2022 3:51 pmI agree on the whole, the only thing I would add is that the NRL is more superior in every aspect.moto748 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 26, 2022 11:18 am The English game can't even manage a video ref at every game, which is a prerequisite for the CC.

Re: Referees Challenge
But it does though football has money here and is seen as the world's best in some quarters the infrastructure that money allows can't be underestimated we in this country never anything like the money to stop the talent drain,Charriots Offiah wrote: ↑Tue Mar 08, 2022 6:19 amMoney does not always deliver success.

Re: Referees Challenge
Maybe we could lend them Ben Thaler.
We have the history Sentelins wish they had
Re: Referees Challenge
I think it's a good idea - but I've also seen alot of calls where the player is blatantly at fault and still calls for a ref's challenge - most by props I think ![Wink ;-)](./images/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif)
