Right now, they have 5 refs + head ref working in a zone formation.

IMHO, they should have 6 refs + head ref working in a man-to-robot formation.

It is much easier to see/call crossings and fouls if you are watching one robot continuously. Also, when a robot-robot foul happens, there are 2 ref's that will see it.

What you miss (and what is missing now) is all the loose boulder fouls. If a boulder is in the Outerworks, who knows where it originally came from.

Sally port crossing for a Ref on the wrong side (blocked by the open door) is also an issue. But, that is also a current problem.
