Re: POLL - Penalties
This information is important to all teams scouting the matches. Some penalties are easily defined, such as a human player not having both feet in the loading zone. Others are much more judgemental in nature. Read the posts of the regionals, and you will find numerous disagreements about how a call was made. Sitting in the stands, you can watch two matches in a row and see what you believe are two identical actions and one is called a penalty while the other one isn't. A brief explanation for the penalty helps all teams to avoid this call as they play the game.
NOTE: This post does not say that the referreeing is inconsistent. I appreciate the effort the referrees put in for us to play these games, and anyone who wants to dispute their decisions should get out there and try referreeing themselves. Then come back here and read how your decisions get picked apart. We all owe a big "THANK YOU" to those folks who are willing to give their time to make the hard calls.
