so in this video the ref gives DOGSO and it feels like the right decision to me, but I would want to know why it’s correct in law. Even though there is a defender that could reach in time, the keeper foul effectively made that defender the keeper and hence DOGSO still applies...

Just so nice to get that isn’t it?. I’m used to abusive parents in a crappy league. Don’t get me wrong, they were challenging in their own way. My only gripe is lack of CAR.

Some of you may have seen my post on starting on a new league. I was nervous before my first game and I’m posting this not to gloat, but just because it really made my weekend receiving this from the referee secretary saying well done and copied this in from the away team captain. I fear the...

any advice on how to handle offsides with no CAR? It’s also near on impossible to know if the ball has gone out of play on a close call.

I found it difficult to not have any AR at all. Judging offsides is very hit and miss when it’s only you in the middle. Guess I just need to get promoted a few times to move up the leagues.

So just as an update. I had my first game and it went well. Nice facilities and a nice burger at the end. ;) was a div 8 match and no AR Which I found very strange. Div 4 next week. I hope they do have AR.

I think SAL and AFL have merged although still run separately? How long is an acceptable amount of time to stay after the match?

I look forward to it then! I’m also not used to having ref changing rooms. Got my bag prepped and ready. ;)

Any advice for the first match?

What if you make a controversial decision? Might be uncomfortable! ;) I’m looking forward to it.

So I’ve taken advice and joined the SAL and move away from youth football. I notice on league guidelines that the teams usually offer hospitality after the match. Is this normal and what is that like? This year I am also finally going to do my promotion. First match tomorrow and I’m looking...

That’s a good point. I thought I had to submit match reports regardless by a certain deadline. It also clears it off your list and marks it as completed.

That’s the new site from this season. What I haven’t figured out is how to submit a report without adding sanctions. I’ve got outstanding reports, but I’ve gone into them and saved, but since I have no sanctions to add it doesn’t give me a submit report option. Previous whole game had submit...

Thanks.

Might have missed this discussion. What is the sanction for non captains approaching referee? Is it a yellow card with what code? Is it a dissent with sin bin?

Just my 2 cents on this. Had the on field decision been foul….then fine. Play stopped end of. With the on field decision being play on, I don’t think that VAR should get involved. Hardly clear and obvious.

I’ve just watched it on ref watch on sky. I have to say, he spreads himself like he is inside the box so yes he is making himself bigger. So handball for me. Would a defender got back and hence not DOGSO? The leg and knee up in is SFP for me. Not that it matters, but he knew what he was doing.

Spot on. Maybe that’s why I think it’s SFP. Not sure why the keeper jumped with his knee like that. He could have seriously hurt the player. It’s not careless or reckless…..it’s dangerous.

For the same reason a penalty was given last week. He comes out and is moving towards the ball. Clearly handles it. Arms in natural position kinda irrelevant as he is moving towards ball. More important for me is he clearly raises his knee to take him out.

I saw this on MOTD and thought it looked nasty. Lifts his knee up. Also it is handball outside the area. So pick your red? DOGSO for the handball or SFP?
