[QUOTE="Cliffyboy, post: 763447, member: 65120"] Well, each to their own but I certainly don't sense that or agree, not at all, though I only watch the matches on T.V. But in terms of the other issues you raise, like the waving of cards, I would agree that referees should stamp that out but I don't see how that really relates to the use of video technology. You could end that tomorrow if it was ruled that only the captain is allowed to approach the referee. Admittedly, referees do not seem to penalise a team as often as they used to, by moving the opposition forward a further ten metres, if a decision is directly questioned, and if that is related to this use, the authorities should be able to introduce a measure or two that would soon put a stop to it. There is no way rugby is going to discontinue the use of video technology - it has proved very beneficial in highlighting dangerous tackles and play that has been missed, as well as obviously helping to confirm whether or not a try has been scored. I see that as being wholly good. [COLOR=silver][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
