In that regards I thought it was a case of two heads being better than one. Why have two referees present if both don't have an input into the decisions? I assumed one would take the lead but the other was there to confer and confirm the ruling before allowing doubt to creep in the more and more and more the footage is disected. I'm sure at the beginning of the season Eddie said that with the new screen that one is there to operate the screen and make the announcements while the other makes the decisions. But as far as I know there is only one video ref announced at each televised game. http://www.therfl.co.uk/matchday/match_officials 26 Apr KO:14:30Challenge CupRd: 5 Leeds Rhinos v St Helens Headingley Carnegie Stadium Ref: R Silverwood Vid Ref: B Thaler Touch J: R Hicks Touch J: C Sharrad Reserve: M Woodhead Time K: I McGregor M Com: P Crashley VR Op: I Smith |
