4 / 10 Home AFC Match / Stallions Laguna

[Kilsin]

For me it’s the way they look at it.

If you can’t decide on one or 2 run throughs with only slowed down by 1 or 2 times (not freeze frame or ultra slow motion for 9 or 10 goes) then it’s not clear and obvious so get on with the bloody game.

Spot on, mate...my thoughts exactly.

It's not clear and obvious if it has to be replayed 40 times from 9 different angles at 17 different speeds.

It's either a clear error and overturned or passed back to the ref with a "sorry, no idea, not clear enough, play on" message.

Anyone know how tall Paull is? Just looked at the team Pic and he towers over everyone, makes Danny look tiny

1.85m (nearly 6ft1") according to Transfrmrkt which has Vuka at 1.87m

If it is clear an obvious you should be able to view all angles once or twice - but only at normal speed. If you can't pick it up at normal speed by then it is not clear and obvious.

The thing for me about the VAR is how bad the tech is and how slow it is. For something like cricket it's different as it's all stop start and they stand around mostly anyway. Football needs to keep moving but they can hold up play for a few minutes at a time and STILL f**k it up.

How does Americas NFL/AFC get it so right , umpire flags , decision verbally announced quick smart

Money.

I also think VAR should only ever be used for goal/non-goal decisions or serious red card situations. Absolutely not for anything else.

It needs to be clear or obvious to hold up play. If it's grey - ref's original call should stand and no waiting should occur.

Seems this would be easy and obvious but somehow isn't

The automated one for the WC was really good for that. Computer says yes/no, everyone goes on.

NFL can take forever too but it's less noticeable because it's a bloody slow sport

It's the most exciting part of the game

For those with the Nisbit and Torres shade...

 

[Allreet?]

I'd get rid of VAR totally and just have goal line tech to check mwhether a ball crossed the line.

End of.

No.

Once it's there it's not going, so live with it and don't expect it to be perfect.

And I wouldn't get rid of it even if I could. The amount of shit it's got rid of justifies it.
