Displacement - Posting POE

Anytime the players are doing things that might be a foul and if I can talk them out of it, I will still try to do that. Like when a player starts by putting their arms in a way to hold their opponent but have not actually held yet.

yup, advantage-disadvantage. You have to learn when to call it and when to warn. Newer officials have to figure it out. Some never do.
