[QUOTE="RoosTah, post: 762395, member: 12207"] [USER=73455]@craig79[/USER] does raise an excellent point there, and funnily enough such a system is being trialled by the NRL over here in our junior grades. It's very much based on the cricket approach, meaning your captain gets two challenges and if he stuffs them both up the referee is free to go with his on field decision from then on. The idea is to put the onus more on the players, having them own a larger part of the result and also helping improve the flow of the game by reducing the amount of times our officials feel pressured to go to the TMO. I reckon it's a brilliant idea. By effectively making it the captains responsibility to challenge and have reasonable cause, even if the referee is wrong on a couple big calls, if the captain has blown his review quota on unambiguous decisions, then the blame goes much more on him and he'll have much less to complain about.
