4:36 water carrier on. Ref should have dismissed him.
5:03 Garbisi is addressing the ball . water carrier and a.n. other are strolling around into Garbisi's field of view. Nothing worth addressing there?
5:08 water carrier still moving now directly between Garbisi and the goal.
5:09 ball falls over. Immediately a Fra player runs towards the ball - its not a walk, not a step - its a run. That cannot be done. Runner stops - not sure why from that video - maybe told to stop?
5:16 water carrier now standing in line between ball and posts. why is he still on the pitch anyway?
5:19 ball is reset. garbisi is preparing/addressing the ball again. Different French player now runs forward. water carrier STILL on the pitch.
so when should ref have first intervened?
4:36 with the water carrier.
After that you guys are the refs not me - but Im amazed that nothing in any of the other random time frames I selected above warrants a "hold on. WTF is going on here?" moment. Except that after the Fra v Sco non-try thing refs are now sh1t scared to do anything remotely viewable as controversial.
5:29 - kick has bounced off the post and play is live - water carrier is STILL basically just standing around in the middle of the pitch.
5:26 weather carrier started to walk off. stopped. turned around and is STILL standing on the pitch 15m from touch.
I cant comment on whether any France players are < 10m from the ball - if its not 10m its pretty close to it... except for when they run at the ball during the act of taking a penalty.
