| Quote SmokeyTA="SmokeyTA"the idea of fumbles counting as knock ons and allowing stripping both create the same problem, it would stop the promotion of the ball for offloads or risky passes and leave the game stuck as five drives and a kick. It would be the worst idea ever.
as for rules i would bring in, 2 refs is the obvious one, right now i think the ruck is a mess and a lottery. I would also like to see an automatic 5 minutes in the sin bin for any and all high tackles.
As a couple of more drastic changes i would look at trialling just to see how it works, 20minute quarters instead of 40minute halves, and replacing the scrum with the line out'"
I can only assume that was a tongue in cheek post
Funny though

Not so much a new rule, but trying to trim out some of the interpretations we have at the moment which require the referee to judge whether something was intentional or not, i.e. the knock on involved in the tackle, charge downs etc.

You are doing a very good impression. Maybe it should point you in the direction of changing your behaviour if people are confusing you for that prizeprick |

There isn't one!
There is a "relativity" rule though. |

Get rid of the new rule stating that an attacker cannot be dragged into touch. Great in theory, but there has been some real dodgy decisions regarding it.

Ban all stripping of the ball even one on one and the kick through that goes dead should be brought back to the place it was kicked only if you have kicked from your own half.

When the ball is kicked downfield in general play, all players save the person playing the ball and the dummy half have to be behind the kicker, or they're offside and a penalty where the ball was kicked. Stops forwards heading off early so that the ball receiver can only get 10 metres, and means kickers will have to be much more focussed on aiming the ball, rather than just hoofing it as far as possible.

IIRC the NRL have introduced a modified version of the "downtown" rule whereby players can be in front of the kicker and can continue chasing downfield (whilst giving the receiver 10m) but are considered offside if are in front of where the play the ball was taken from when the ball is kicked. So it doesn't mean every forward has to get back behind the kicker but does limit how far downfield they can be at the kick.
I think the RFL should introduce this rule, since it's very frustrating watching Nick Fozzard set off running up field as soon as the PTB is taken and is half way down there by the time the ball is kicked nevermind caught! |
