[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 1033230, member: 40658"] The TMO is not the man in charge though, and must take instruction for the Referee. The referee must say that the on-field decision is a try or not, and the TMO must look at footage which will either substantiate the decision, or overturn it. There are many occasions where the replays and slo-mo's don't give a clear indication of what transpired or in the event of a try being scored, if the ball was grounded or not. and in most cases, the referee is in a better position than the camera-men as most of them are stationary, standing upright with the camera moving off a tripod. The referee on the other hand can move around and even crouch or lie down to get a better viewpoint. [/QUOTE]
