Hi,
I'm a new ref and I was thinking about this the other day and was wondering what to do if this happened.
The game is flowing and you as the ref are following the game, when a shout goes up that blue player has punched red player who is knocked to the floor, the ref didn't see the incident but when he questions blue player he admits that he did punch him.
My question is would the game be stopped before the ball went out of play to deal with it and what action could the ref take ?
