Video referee gave two tries and siallowed one in Tonga vs Scotland on benefit of the doubt for the tries or uncertainty for the disallowed. In all instances the video referee had not enough camera angles. The worst case was the try awarded to the Scotland full back where it was not clear that the ball had touched the chalk because the video ref could not see a side angle. Sky could have done better because they have more cameras.
Of course Premier Sports commentary with main callers Andrew Voss or Dave Woods, plus analysis from Brian Noble, Shaun Edwards, Robby Hunter-Paul, and Darryl Halligan, has been outstanding (the third English caller for the Fiji game was weak, and could not pronounce Civinoceva). But that does not rectify or have any bearing on the serious problem we have of referees getting the right decision on try scoring.
