Lessen the authority of the umpire, and the game will be changed for the worse IMO.
Quite right, Ern.

Quite right, Ninj. Just as a jury tries the alleged offence, and not the alleged offender (therefore is generally not allowed to know of any previous record), so the umpire should review the incident, not the batsman.

The umpire is there to make the decision. I don't believe in walking.

Take the umpires decision, its up to the individual to walk if they want but I don't. The umpires don't like walkers.
