If captain challenges a decision then it is looked at by VAR. The review must be at full speed and time limit on review process. If the team challenge is upheld, they keep their challenge. Takes us back to only using VAR for clear and obvious errors. Reply |

The biggest issue with VAR in the stadium is communication, there is hee-haw, When Rugby puts the replays on the big screen as the referee looks at it everyone is informed and can see it all again making them feel included, at the moment we are watching a referee basically having a phone call conversation in the middle of the pitch, leaving us all asking “What’s happening?” VAR works, the equipment is virtually infallible, the implementation is the biggest issue exasperated by the assertions from some fans that referees are biased.
