We have had an official play a game last year on a horrendous pitch cos the league challengers (containing his son & son in law) wanted the 3 points from the relegation battlers. He didnt even check the pitch - walked out to centre circle with ball in his hand and plonked it into the muck! I laughed as I heard the squelch from the sideline!! In this case, he did not check the pitch and therefore did wrong, but either way, the AUL and official are leaving themselves open to unecessary grief.
