[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 1025062, member: 56232"] Yes, but the point is that the ref shouldn't be calling time on. If he calls time on then a player should exploit it. It's not for the players to determine that play can't restart because water carriers are on the field, that's for the ref. In 2 cases the ref made the wrong call and in 2 cases the player took advantage. The difference is we are blaming the ref for how he restarted the game, others are blaming Farrell for how the ref restarted the game and making out he is a hypocrite. In both cases the onus is on the ref. Essentially it boils down to calling Farrell a hypocrite for taking advantage of a referee blunder but not being happy to have the reverse happen. Literally at no point has a player taking advantage of a ref error but still not wanting that error against them been a point of contention until now it seems. [/QUOTE]
