I've just watch a coach get his SG/DP sent of on the first turn for a weak foul as he hadn't not the kick off result. I know I've done it myself and seen others do it too. Admittedly it is a mistake, but feels a little unfair and less likely on table top. As much as I dislike needless confirmation boxes, I think fouling whilst under scrutiny might warrant one?

Isnt that his fault? Do we need to manage the inattentiveness of coaches? At best, you could have an "eye" icon in the icon tray at the bottom.

I'd also like something to make it more obvious.

I used to love the old "Eye of the ref" (?) ani gif, but I presume there's no space for it now?

Maybe a secondary Kick off announcement? Those are super clear, e.g. "Blitz!" & "High Kick". So still have "Cheering Fans", but then also have "Under Scrutiny".

Nuffle's prayer, "Under Scrutiny" which can be received via the kick off event cheering fans.

No.

If you dont check whats happening in game its your own fault to get punished.

Also anything that makes prayers better is a good thing o.O

I'm for making the Prayers more evident. A user-friendly client is better and more inclusive. Some coaches are new to the game.
Some days ago I was playing vs ShellShock and he missed the "Moles under the pitch" Prayer.
We discussed about it in game and the idea was having red coloured squares for 3+ Rushes (2+ Rushes could have a yellow or orange colour, instead).
The red colour would help to spot at first sight the 3+ Rush. The 3+ is small and easily overseen in the heat of a turn while you have to think about many things.

Thanks.

Where does this come from? I can't find it in the rulebook.

(No, I'm not looking in the 2016 rulebook Wink )

Edit: Got it. Actually was looking in the wrong rulebook. Very Happy

tip of the day, look right rulebook.

Also, look what happens in game ;o

In table you roll and see what happens and then you have to kinda remember what happened.

In client you roll and see what happens and then you have to kinda remember what happened.

Hmm... do we need a badge for getting your dedicated fouler taken off the field during "Under scrutiny"? (Kinda the way you can earn a badge for so many attempted pickups with a player with 'No Hands'?)

Need a second one for getting hit by a rock for stalling? I've sat WAITING for the crowd to throw a rock at my stalling opponent... sure my opponent hasn't seen how restless the crowd has been. (Right now, I think there's just one for having a really expensive player get killed by a rock...)
