With multiple refs this is just completely inexcusable.

I find that multiple refs
increase the number of bogus calls like this. The ref furthest away from the play will call a penalty based on something he couldn't see properly, and the other ref, who did see that there was no infraction, either has no power to overrule him, or doesn't want to make his partner look bad.
