Message: [QUOTE="freshler40, post: 4527592, member: 11053"] Thanks for the lookup. Instant replay (a) would seem to apply. As I'm not sure of the clock at -Two minutes and the infraction, this is a difficult call but, when refs take a long time, it seems, to add several seconds to a clock, the handoff / Nika foul should certainly be weighed as a review and wouldn't have been called if the above instant replay rule had been followed. The remedy is to make the correct call after the review. No foul, our ball! Another area of concern is the comment, by some posters here, that a ref across from the action makes a call on a player facing away from them who apparently has no direct view of what happened, they only supposed what happened. That seems to pass muster most of the time. So much for ref territorial responsibility some have mentioned. Refs do make call from outside their geographic area. In defense of the refs, the rules, like life, are becoming more complicated. [/QUOTE]
