    Really hope we don't get them in football watching 1st half of the rugby and was bored with all the stoppages.

    There are too many stoppages in union, not just the video replays.

    It meant they got all the decisions right though. I don't want them in football mind.

    I watch rugby league on sky quite often and think the same. Can u imagine scoring a vital goal and then going to the video ref takes all exitement out. It works for Rugby though but not in football.

    It would take all the talking points away from football. Goal line technology maybe that's it for me.

    Yes I think goal line technology is good for the game

    There would be far less incidents in football requiring review.

    Soz to disagree.

    Players paid a fortune to train and prepare for a game which ends up decided by a dodgy linesman's decision.

    For the sake of 2 minutes. Review it if a goal has been scored and the decision could be wrong.

    That is fair. And not taxing at all. How often does the ball end up in the net such that a review is needed?

    I think generally they work well. But I did think it was wrong to go back after the ref had given the first Fiji try and then when the try was replayed for the crowd change his mind.

    in football they could be used for line decisions but not sure much else

    Why dont footballers respect a referee like the rugby lads do? So refreshing when decisions are just accepted and there's np backchat or surrounding of an official.

    Be a bit mean to make to make someone watch our games more than once. Surely there's sum at in the Geneva Convention preventing this.

    Totally agree with the respect to refs not just the players but managers too, if a ref just sent a player off in footy soon as they swore at them it'd soon but a stop to how they act towards them. Not like am a angel I've seen red for a couple of times for it haha
