For the benefit of those such as a certain individual who didn't get it. The comment about my reputation preceding me was sarcastic hence why I went on to say it's probably not that :wall:
As ungrateful as it sounds I'd rather not have it because I don't see how it's fair on the other league officials. I'm sure there are many more deserving referees in the league that have refereed all season for them and they've not got a Semi-Final. I've moved to the area, done 1 game and then...
Been appointed to a Sunday League Semi-Final in the middle with NAR's tomorrow. Last Sunday was my first game in 18 months, out of shape and working hard to get back to where I was when I stopped, appointment secretary knows my situation. I'd like to think my reputation precedes me but I know...
Not a fan of that. Why is a lesser knowledge of the laws more acceptable the lower you go down? It shouldn't be knowledge that increases as you go up the levels. Your knowledge of the LOTG is your bread and butter it's everything else that should be improving, man management etc.
I've told you about the time both teams wanted to play in a certain WYAFL cup game in the worst conditions I've ever officiated in because one didn't want to risk them not getting the result and the other, despite losing, didn't want to replay it as they'd traveled a fair distance...
Of those claiming handball, do you jump with your arms by your side?
The guidance we are given hear in England that a 'natural' position does not always mean down by your side for this reason.
So you're picky about whether you're called an assessor or an observer but you don't care when a referee decides to ignore an aspect of the laws of the game whilst you're assessing him. Interesting.
And then the referee goes on to referee games, get assessed and drops silly marks by not checking sock tape. You may have done them a favour and given them a 'cheeky extra few marks' and but they'll they lose them marks on the next game and if they don't realise that most assessors enforce the...
100% right.
Make sure your reports are exact. Don't miss a detail. If they threatened your safety, express that in the report. The report should reflect exactly how you felt in that situation.
You're required to ensure only named substitutes enter the field of play.
The laws of the game state this:
If you are not recording the names of substitutes then you are not following the laws of the game. This is not unnecessary admin, this is your job as a referee.
It strikes me that you simply have a serious dislike for admin. We had the exact same discussion in regards to you not wanting to report two cases of misconduct on two reports. You state that the competition rules mention subs made to delay. They're not made with the intent to delay if it's what...
The competition rules will state the maximum.
Secondly, you won't be stopping the legal re-use of a player because the LOTG state that a substitution occurs between a player on the field and a named substitute. It doesn't matter whether it's rolling or not. Named.
Got my first 2 5-4 assessments scheduled within the next 2 weeks and I'm seeking some advice on the step up. What kind of development points did you all get at 5-4 level and for any observers what advice do you find yourselves giving commonly for new 5-4 candidates?
I always dread the first...
Last season I had a league cup final in which I had the one of the teams in a fixture the week prior. In the league game they were terrible. I was a bit worried that I was going to have to clamp down hard on them pretty fast in the cup final fixture. They were angels that game.
You can...
Regardless of roll-on roll-off, each team is required to provide the names of the players who can roll on and off. It's roll-on roll-off between the starting 11 and named subs.
I'd be marking AR2 up for team work for noticing AR1 signaling and noticing that you hadn't noticed it. I've always thought of it as a bonus but not expected.
