If the referee believes a touch judge is guilty of misconduct, the referee has power to send the touch judge off and make a report to the match organiser. b) If the referee stops play because a player has been injured, and there has been no infringement and the ball has not been made dead, play restarts with a scrum. By my reckoning, after an injury stoppage you will always have one of the not needed restarts, which makes listing injury as a reason to restart as pointless.Exception 3: When, at a quick throw-in, the ball that went into touch is replaced by another ball, or after it went into or it has been touched by anyone except the player who takes the throw-in, the touch judge keeps the flag up.

Police whistles came much later; the early Victorian constable would have carried a small wooden rattle. c) If either team gains an advantage in in-goal, if the ball is in possession of an attacking player the referee awards a try where the contact took place.
