If the referee has to stop the game because a player is down “injured” that player should have to leave the field whether or not the physio comes on.
Too often you see what we saw today: Wealdstone player down motionless with Daggers in possession; ref stops game; player immediately gets to his feet and doesn’t require treatment so doesn’t have to leave the field thus has achieved the aim of getting the game stopped and killing time with no disadvantage to his side.
