Artefact 2 -Responses

These are the responses i got from the artefact i posted.

•"I absolutely would like to hear the referees during the game in highlights , he‘d be the guy with a red face because everybody else at home likes or doesn’t the call”

•“A great game of rugby league was ruined by an official nervous of trusting his own judgment because of video intervention. At one point, four decisions were passed upstairs in six minutes, and, most worryingly, not all of them appeared to come back with a satisfactory conclusion. “

•“ Success will bring more demands to open the door to greater use of artificial intelligence in a sport that is made beautiful by its organic, human-error dictated nature.”

•“It is not a giant leap from goal-line checking or hearing the referee to coaches being able to challenge decisions as they can in American football.”

•“It would slow the game down. Before we know it, we could have the referee running off to the replay booth to examine everything from dive/penalty debates, elbow-related challenges and is-he-isn't-he out of the technical area disputes every few minutes.”

•“If you could hear the ref you could cut down on abuse towards refs and swearing as if the case in rugby and American football.”

•One person posted that in other sports hearing the referee is a good thing because fewer infractions are likely to be committed thus saving time. This could happen for football.
