The "benefit of the doubt" rule in favour of the attacking team has been scrapped and the on-field referees will have to make a call before referring a try-scoring incident to the video official.
Elliott says there are bound to be teething problems, but believes the change is a positive step for the game.
"I think what people are after is the referees to make a decision and then let the technology either support that or go against that," he said.
"That's what they (the ARL Commission) have done - the refs make a decision rather than go upstairs all the time. I actually really like it."
Meanwhile, Elliott, who took over as Warriors' coach after the club finished a disappointing third last this year, is encouraged with the way the club's pre-season program has gone.
"I want to pay tribute to the players and the way they've embraced a new system and a pretty tough regime as far as training goes," he said.
"I've been pretty impressed with the leadership they've shown right across the groups."
Elliott - yet to announce the 2013 skipper - was giving little away on Thursday.
Second-rower Simon Mannering has had the job for the past three seasons.
The Warriors have their final pre-Christmas training session on Friday and will reassemble on January 3.
