Well....I sort of can't blame them. The refereeing fraternity has created a very clear expectation there, and that nonsense started with FIFA

That's what i thought.. I wonder how much of this thread is just people misinterpreting each other? Then misinterpreting responses to the misinterpretations?

I doubt anybody is arguing that the one-armed player should be able to throw it however he likes. As long as it's replicating conventional style as much as possible. Though I don't think anybody here knows what your position is - one post you seem to say it should be allowed, within reason...

It should This.. Obviously his throw mechanics are different - but as long as he is making an effort to replicate a throw and not getting a big advantage then we need to allow it. If he's trying to abuse the situation by hurling it, foul throw and chat to the coach. I can't believe anybody is...

No, you did the right thing in refusing to retake the IFK As others said, the players could be cautioned...given it's grassroots and it's just a misunderstanding I think you're fine to not give the caution, but you'd want to make sure you're advising them to make sure you've given the clear...

Valid, but in that instance you're just inviting more trouble

Why would you call him back? Just report him.

Soo......why not prevent any possible grief and tell them it's the last kick?

I always wondered how the federations were reporting their accuracy figures - because I know in the first season of the HAL especially, most of the VAR decisions were definitely wrong - and that's not even counting all the times when it should have been involved but inexplicably wasn't (the sort...

It might be a matter of an inch, but if they have the confidence that the technology is accurate then that's fine. 'Clear and obvious' doesn't mean it has to be a major difference. Like the ball in/out of play -

Happy new year to you too! Honestly, from your description I don't think there's anything I could say you could have done better! You anticipated the match, sounds like you made sure to respond quickly to early fouls and to anything simmering. The fight came out of the blue, you got there...

So yes, I'd suggest you do want to tell the players it's the last kick of the game and there's no followup - easier to tell then rather than after they've scored a goal on the followup that you've disallowed. Though defenders may still want to run in - on the rare occasion the defender has...

Cool. Read my post again.

Yep...and VAR is just as unpredictable and inconsistent as live referee decisions are as well. At least in Australia. Then correct process and decision for me. But if the AR had flagged an offside here and it had gone to VAR for some reason (I know, play would have stopped and it wouldn't go...

The 3D Hawkeye was only at the World Cup - I don't think any leagues are implementing it. So, we're stuck with the 2D line. The WC Hawkeye also clearly marked out where each player's line was. The problem with the footage we receive is the resolution - from pictures like that you can't tell...
