Why new ARLC powers hurt the match review committee

Code continues to say that MRC’s decisions cannot be reviewed, except for fraud.

So the system, at least until last week. However, now, Arlc himself seems to play a role as a kind of final referee in terms of examining and thinking of any player who can create a crime.

This is not a responsibility that I want to work with as a poisonous glass and company director. You cannot be an expert in everything. Try this and you won’t be very good.

But at the same time, the fact that Arlc has this reserve power now affects MRC’s work and the obligation to act without an independent, impartial and fair, fear or goodness, love, or bad intention.

It is not easy to live with the standards of independence, impartiality and justice, if there is an eye cluster everywhere over your shoulder.

The existing 20a (1) rule of the Judicial Law (1) clearly states that the decisions of MRC are final except for its binding with fraud.

But now, these decisions are not a result of the process. Question: Who wants to be a MRC member in these conditions?

At the end of the matches every weekend, there is only a match that exports NRL and a theory caused by associated processes.

First, MRC and their processes are independent and arm length. MRC takes decisions, evidence based on the examination of match images, referee reports and other materials.

MRC, whether the newspaper back page hysteria or the club’s power brokers who have petitioned for certain actions to be triggered, is at least insulated.

Secondly, and this judicial law is made clearly by itself, the committee members are selected as distinguished players, coaches or referees; They know more than three parts of the game and the infinite type and the abuse spectra.

Without disrespectful disrespect, serious mistakes should be kept before being discharged about whether a board of directors knows better than MRC’s deliberately elected members.

Can you imagine the massacre that may arise when I estimate themselves, as every police officer who makes criminal charges through analogy has a real tendency to change the decisions of the commander?

Third, the match review process is absolutely part of a quick justice system. Review, load, defense and hearing process take place within three or four days. If MRC’s review and load procedures cannot take place in the laying of an accusation to enter and examine the issue itself, how quickly eight directors can reach the evidence and make their own decisions so that the timetables are not reversed?

Fourth, under which conditions can ARLC be presented to the attention of Arlc, so that it can be asked to rise above any decision made by MRC? Is this process as simple as the president of a club, or is the process more sophisticated and narrowed? Can a club coach send a DM to Instagram or jump out loud in another forum?

In balance, it makes sense to some extent that Arlc has some kind of reserve power. The directors are ultimately responsible for the execution of the ARLCs and NRL’s work. Issues such as presidential management are critical for the future concern. There can be no gaps in such processes.

However, this observation certainly does not turn into the idea that Arlc itself should be charging forces. On the contrary, a balanced and proportional approach will be directed to officially examine MRC and decide not to request a player in relation to certain behaviors, so that directors have the power coded by a special majority.

This re -routing must be limited to 24 hours after MRC decides not to charge. The direction should be able to give problems in very limited conditions, as ARLC is concerned about a reasonable basis for MRC a serious judicial error. ARLC does not have the power to ask for a accusation and the proposed sanction, because it is very violent.

However, the final decision on charging should remain with MRC. The current process is not unfair. Independent and suitable.
