Overturning a penalty or decision

Over the last weeks I have seen done decisions that have made me scratch my head, because the refs are basically doing the same as they have no idea! Can someone please tell me the ruling behind changing a decision, because I seen a couple tonight but some earlier in the year and they didn't change.

  • it's a lottery- I don't think anyone knows
  • The rule is Canterbury and Greenberg . That's all I need to say
  • If there is a break in play, the video ref can overturn it.
  • Hi HKF, I agree that its really annoying when captains go querying or challenging ref decisions.

    The refs should just ignore them & keep the game moving. The message will get through quickly enough when the captain concerned is caught out of a defensive position during a play the ball situation etc.

    Delaying tactics to allow teams to reset their defensive line or to give their forwards a breather is wrong. Lyons, Cam Smith, JT & Menace appear do it as a matter of course. Bloody annoying really.

    Timmys to nice a bloke to get involved & Hayne has blotted his copybook & gets pinged when he shoots his mouth off. My biased opinion of course.
