Maybe they should try giving teams just the one review then maybe players wouldn't use until there was a genuine howler

Review all or none IMO
Maybe India are right afterall

I agree but unfortunately I think drs is here to stay so I was thinking of other ideas as the current system is an epic fail

Well review all then.
Have a third and fourth ump watching every delivery, can make a decision in a matter of seconds.
The third ump watches every ball for a no ball and can signal the main ump within 5 seconds
The fourth ump checks every other decision.

Just automatically review every wicket. Have more than one person looking at the footage, so you can haw one person looking at the no ball, one looking at hot spot, one looking at the pitch for the lbw, all at the same time, so there is no waiting around for the batsman, and no killing of the moment by halting celebrations half way through

[Zelezny Chucks]

I have no problem with the 2 referrals system but take the decision out of the umpires hands. DRS shows it is out or not, if they don't have enough faith in the system to say it got it right then they shouldn't be using it end of story.

4 good posts in a row on this page on DRS
With so many opinions on how it should or shouldn't be done, it says to me the current system is too fallible to too many people

Boof said this morning that it was Chris Rogers who told Watson to review his dismissal and the reason Rogers didn't review his was after he got the Watson review wrong he didn't have the confidence to review his own.

IMHO that is only because Rogers being the relative newcomer didn't have the balls to tell Watson to just forget about it.

Just flicked through the last few pages and the simple question is- After 1 and 1/2 test is the difference between the 2 teams DRS? F$&k me no it isn't so stop pissing and moaning about it.

Why don't you blokes stop carrying on like women and take the first test for example on paper you should've got smashed and only lost by 14 runs FFS be semi positive and stop looking for excuses I swear half of you area Brad Scott!

If it wasn't for the selfish pigs like Watson wasting reviews you might have claims for better use of the DRS.

For mine you've had ample opportunity to blood good youth for the last 5 to 7 years but stuck with blokes who used to be good! hence now your exposing to many blokes to test match cricket at once and paying the price. Australia has had huge talent for the last 5-7 years just being stagnent in the state comp because you stuck with blokes at the end of there career.

You reep what you sow.
