Leading English referee Wayne Barnes says that player safety is paramount for officials with the new Aviva Premiership season about to kick off. Stitched Blues Jerseys.But Barnes admits aerial challenges involving players remains a testing area when it comes to the decision-making process.Challenges in the air is still one of the hardest decision-making areas for the referee because there is so much to take into consideration, Barnes said, during a Rugby Football Union laws media briefing on Thursday.We will be looking at all the factors that aggravate it.For example, does the player deliberately play a man in the air, which would obviously aggravate it? How did he land? Did he land heavily? Did he land from a height? Does he land on the head or shoulder?Also, and this has been a big push from the players, we have to take into consideration how quickly the game is happening.What we hope we will see this year is a bit more common sense and rugby decisions, so you might hear us explain our decisions a bit more over the ref mic so people know how weve got to a red card [decision], yellow card or a play-on.We want to protect players in vulnerable positions, and people in the air are obviously vulnerable. Player safety is paramount for us.Barnes was asked about perceived discrepancies in the reporting and punishing of players who make contact with the eye area of another player.New Zealand prop Owen Franks escaped sanction despite appearing to make contact with the eye area of Australia forward Kane Douglas during last Saturdays Rugby Championship clash in Wellington, with no citing made after the match.From my point of view, you have got to see all the angles. Thats really the key, added Barnes, in a general observation.If, as a referee, we see a player deliberately put his fingers in someones eye, we will deal with it, but I think we need to see all of the angles.If we do get something like that, we will stick it up on the screen and we will discuss that between the referee and the TMO [television match official].From a referee point of view, what we would say is we have all seen examples when it is clear, and I think the referees are consistent.A number of minor law amendments will come into effect during the new season, including a move to banish simulation issues such as players diving or feigning injury, plus any back-chat directed at officials.Additionally, a player who has been substituted could only previously return to the field as replacement for an injured front-row player, a player with a blood injury, or a player taking a head injury assessment, but he can now also take over from a player who has been injured as a result of foul play.And referees can also now play advantage following a collapsed scrum, provided there is no risk to player safety.Asked about player back-chat, Barnes said: I dont see it as a major issue. I just think it is something we need to be aware of.I dont think it is a massive part of our game, but we all want the game played in the right way.The Premiership campaign begins on Friday, when Gloucester tackle Leicester at Kingsholm and Newcastle host Sale Sharks.St.Louis Blues Gear . Robredo, ranked No. 16, bounced back from an upset loss to Leonardo Mayer in the second round of the Royal Guard Open in Chile last week to down Carreno Busta in 1 hour, 25 minutes. On a day filled mostly with qualifying matches, fifth-seeded Marcel Granollers of Spain also entered the second with a 7-5, 3-6, 6-2 win over Aljaz Bedene of Slovenia, while Guido Pella of Argentina defeated Guillermo Garcia-Lopez of Spain 7-6 (6), 6-4 to advance. Blues Jerseys 2021 . The return match will take place next Wednesday. Udinese leads Fiorentina 2-1 in the other semifinal. Napoli staged a second-half comeback from two goals down after Gervinhos opener and a stunning strike from Kevin Strootman. https://www.cheapblues.com/ . P.A. Parenteau scored early in the third period to help the Avs edge Toronto 2-1 on Tuesday night. Cory Sarich also scored for Colorado (3-0-0), which is off to its best ever start. While many fantasy football players are searching for value plays and sleepers, its just as important to think about the busts.Avoiding an early round dud can help you land potential breakout players in the middle rounds. Injuries are difficult to predict, but there are signs that indicate a player will disappoint at their draft cost.Here are a few players to be leery of in 2016:---KELVIN BENJAMIN (WR, Panthers)Benjamin is coming off a torn ACL and has struggled with his conditioning. Benjamin depended on volume during his rookie season and was able to get the targets because the Panthers were thin at receiver in 2014. Theres more competition for targets now with second-year receiver Devin Funchess, wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr. and tight end Greg Olsen. Benjamin had 145 targets in 2014 and caught 73 for 1,008 yards and nine touchdowns. At 6-foot-5 and 240 pounds, he seems like a good red zone threat, but only caught 4 of his 15 targets. Benjamin is being drafted in the third or fourth rounds of most drafts -- too high a price to pay.---JULIAN EDELMAN (WR, Patriots)Edelman missed seven games in 2015 due to a foot injury and had two procedures to fix it. Edelman is reliant on sharp cuts to get open on short routes and quarterback Tom Brady will miss the first four games due to suspension. Edelman has played 16 games one time in his career and the Patriots have more weapons in the offense and will spread the ball around more. Edelman is being drafted in rounds 3 and 4, ahead of some better options at wide receiver.---MATT FORTE (RB, Jets)Forte has been dealing with a hamstring injury for most of training camp and the preseason. Forte has 2,522 touches in his career and turns 31 in December. Forte averaged 4.1 yards per carry last season and missed three games. He has 10 rushing touchdowns in his last 29 games and loses even more value in non point-per-reception formats.---JIMMY GRAHAM (TE, Seahawwks)Graham suffered a patellar tendon knee injury last year and its one of the worst injuries for a football player. Cheap Blues Jerseys. Giants receiver Victor Cruz hasnt returned from the same injury since 2014, in part because it led to other injuries. Graham, who turns 30 in December, had a difficult time adjusting to a new offense with Seattle last season with two touchdowns in 11 games.---MATT JONES (RB, Redskins)Jones suffered an AC shoulder sprain in Week 2 of the preseason and is expected to be ready for the start of the regular season. Jones is being drafted high due to the volume hes expected to see since there arent great options behind him, but Jones isnt very good. He averaged 3.4 yards per carry in 2015 with eight games of double-digit carries and topped 62 yards rushing once. Jones also lost four fumbles.---DOUG MARTIN (RB, Buccaneers)In a contract year, Martin rushed for 1,402 yards and 4.9 yards per carry in 2015. He missed 15 games the prior two seasons and didnt top 3.7 yards per carry in either. He has nine rushing touchdowns over his last 33 games and he loses some touches to Charles Sims.---BEN ROETHLISBERGER (QB, Steelers)Roethlisberger is being drafted in most leagues as a top 5 quarterback. The absence of wide receiver Martavis Bryant, who is suspended for the year, is a big loss for the Steelers offense. Roethlisberger is very inconsistent. Roethlisberger was 15th in points per game in leagues with 6 points for a passing touchdown last season at the quarterback position. Over the last two seasons, he has passed for one touchdown or less in 14 of 28 games. In is 12-year career, he has played 16 games three times and missed four games last season.---This column was provided to The Associated Press by the Fantasy Sports Network, http://FNTSY.com . ' ' '
