Rugby Refcam

The refcam was trialed during a Super 15 match in Australia.

Pretty cool. This is the way all sport television could go.

That is pretty cool, although you could see the players were very aware they were being filmed. Could give you a good idea of what exactly a ref saw (or didn't see) in terms of foul play.

Wouldn't want to watch a whole game like that, though. Will be nice to have as part of replays for highlights, though.

That's exactly how it was being used. Very cool indeed...

Cool idea.

Also gives us Sharks supporters another excuse to blame the referee. Love it...

That's bloody cool!

Could also have as a PiP.
