The video ref was brought in to solve a problem. All it has done is create more problems.
They get it right on most occassions. But as proven last night when they get it wrong, boy do they get it wrong. I would hate to see them make a similar mistake in the grand final.
I don't believe we should get rid of the system. As I have said they get it right most of the time. What we need to do is look at ways to improve the system.
I have come up with two possible ideas.
Idea #1
Instead of having the video ref(s) up in the grand stand making the decision how about we have the match referee make it.
In the NFL the match referee watches a TV down on the sideline and makes the decision.
For mine the match ref, because he is involved with the flow of the game may have a better idea of what has happened. He just may need to clarify his thoughts by viewing in on a monitor.
Idea #2
3D TV.
Yeah I know the cost of covering every game with sufficient 3D cameras would be extreme.
But it just may make easier for the video ref to get the decision right.
