    What a screwed up rule .. so someone in the crowd can hold the ball until the goal kickers time has lapsed…another bizarre rule 🤦🏻

        Is always been that way, don't kick the fucking ball into the crowd. Johnny Wilkinson the cheat, used dry balls for his conversions on this very ground during RWC. You gotta use the same ball

          Like MP says, if players don't know the rule, they're bloody stupid. Never understood why players ditch the ball after that law was brought in.

            Do you have to use the same ball that the try was scored with to kick the conversion?

                          Didn't read your post above. Makes sense why they have to use the same ball. I was wondering what the point of that rule was

                            He's well low. Rugby incident. Play on, penalty at best.

                                        I don't like that reasoning, the answer is not make a dangerous tackle. However if a guy nearly falling over is considered upright then there's something wrong.

                                          The Force kicker looks a bit 'special' when he kicks for goal.
