[QUOTE="Dirty Ape, post: 749709, member: 73216"] Haven't seen this option discussed anywhere but a promising alternative to what we have now might be to have the refs make all decisions on field to the best of their ability (in consultation with touchies if necessary) and then the team captains have a number of reviews available where a decision can be reviewed and possibly overuled by the TMO. This kind of process works very well in tennis, less well in cricket, but might potentially give us a better balance between game flow, accuracy in decisions, and general entertainment. Surely this would speed up the game, put the emphasis on refs to be decisive and accurate, and add some drama when the TMO is called on. I was at the game last night and had a great time, but that was mostly because of the rowdy company I keep, the game itself died a death in that 2nd half. [/QUOTE]
