To change the tone up (ever so slightly), I'm stoked for young Dekker that he is back on the field but still bitter that his injury was caused by a trip 30m off the ball and the instigator, Mauk, walked away scot free, whilst his victim was out for almost a year with his career on the rocks.  Just wrong.

I hanker for the days when there were no cards, no big screens, no instant replays, and no fourth official. Referees and linesmen probably made more mistakes that they do today, but there was rarely any way of checking unless a cameraman had the luck to take just the right shot at the right time.

But you can't unscramble the egg.

The technology is there and at the moment it's a no win for the refs. They get hammered regularly, sooner video replays are used to help make the right decisions the better.
