As ref you see and incident, give a decision. Assistant (much futhter away) flags you over, you go with him.
Happy days if he's right and you're wrong. But vice versa and it's a recipe for trouble!
I always place a lot of trust in my assistants and this incident makes me question why? I've had assistants give decisions I've disagreed, and have overruled on throw ins, with but, thankfully, never a uni.
Sounds easy to say you'd not do something similar but you're essentially questioning their judgement openly if you ignore them.
I suppose at what point would you feel uncomfortable backing your assistants?
