Thanks for the link! I can't say we haven't been discussing this.

It's a crazy difficult call catch consistently with reffing this year (I know it), but it drives me crazy as a coach, even in quals. I've lost track of the number of alliances I've seen hoarding just while walking past the field.

The setup for HP foul calling this year is my biggest problem with this game. It kills a lot of strategy.
Is there refs behind the wall that aren't also watching the field? If so, that should be their primary thing to watch, am I wrong?

Sorry for all the questions, I haven't been following CD this season as much as last.
