because it would quite possibly end up like american football, where a 60 mnute game ends up taking 4 hours!

video footage is still quite subjective when it comes to some fouls etc. i can see a good case for testing whether the ball is over the line (whatever line that may be) but otherwise i think it'd interrupt the game too much.

also i think football can take something from rugby, in that arguing with the referee should not be tolerated in any shape or form.
