A reminder from your friendly NEIGHborhood (lulz) zebra: Two things a ref has to do in order to call a penalty. See the action: If you don’t see the action, in its entirety (i.e. beginning, middle, end), you can’t call it. Assess the impact: If you can’t see the impact, you can’t call it. If one of those two areas aren’t seen, you can’t call it. A ref does not have the ability to just make shit up.

A reminder from your friendly NEIGHborhood (lulz) zebra:

Two things a ref has to do in order to call a penalty.

  1. See the action: If you don’t see the action, in its entirety (i.e. beginning, middle, end), you can’t call it.
  2. Assess the impact: If you can’t see the impact, you can’t call it.

If one of those two areas aren’t seen, you can’t call it. A ref does not have the ability to just make shit up.
