I find it interesting that, in my observation, the higher the level the ref, and the better, the more likely they are to talk over a call with their partner and make sure the right call is made, even if they have to over-rule one another.

I have such respect for a ref that does this and for the one that gets over-ruled to accept his partners help by going over and explaining it all to the coaches.

What I don't respect, is when one ref sees a tip or a correctable error and will not over-rule his partner.

Do they feel this will crush the guy if they go over and say, "I got white tipping the ball after the pass was made, I think it should go the other way" then they can talk it out.
