    Funny article...

    The fact that he singles out Cully, JK, Kearns and Horan, yet barely Marshalls comment is more a passing comment

        @pakman man in front of the kicker at restarts has been a thing for years now...seems officials let some of those things go now, similarly hookers with thier feet over the sideline at lineouts

        Compare the pair:
        "Just let the game flow, ref. We're not here to watch you blow up technicalities!"
        Versus
        "Aw fucken cheating Aussies a metre offside at the restart!"

            @Bovidae yeah you'd think his will be the equal of Swinton, only lessening factor is he used his arms, whereas Swinton didnt, but the head contact with Ofa's was worse, so I think 4 weeks will be about right.

            Thought the impact was about the same in terms of contact, speed, and effect. Difference being tackler was moving fast in Swinton's case and not much in Ofa's case

              In real time I thought Swinton's looked worse. League style shoulder charge as opposed to Ofa making a late effort with arms around a falling attacker. Both walked away fine so it was a shame the ref went to RCs, especially as the first decision gave him zero wiggle room

                We've actually had the discussion before. It came down to the definition of the "field of play". The touchline is out so if the hooker's feet are touching the chalk then he is out of the field and it is legit. Think it was Damo (ref) who said how it is interpreted / ruled.

                Still looks wrong and yes some of them aren't "on" the line but inside it at times.

                  @Machpants I don’t think it’s just mine, I think serval had said he deserves it

                  I guess my starting point is deliberate things, and yes sometimes it’s hard to tell, but deliberate things should cop a harsher penalty

                  Scott of the Barrett's deliberately interfered with the ball, while on the ground at a ruck. Deliberate professional foul so the ref was correct to yellow card him. There's no law in rugby that says teams have to be warned before being given a yellow card.

                  @Machpants I think if you look back through games you'll find similar stupid incidents like this getting yellow cards.

                          On the night. But the whole point is avoiding concussion.

                          World Rugby are very aware that, if they aren't seen to be addressing the root causes of concussion (and CTE over the longer term), they'll open themselves up to legal proceedings.

                          Meanwhile in the NRL...

                              Had it been a penalty which went over, should the TMO have pointed out to ref that men were in front?

                                @Machpants I don’t think it’s just mine, I think serval had said he deserves it

                                I guess my starting point is deliberate things, and yes sometimes it’s hard to tell, but deliberate things should cop a harsher penalty

                                Scott of the Barrett's deliberately interfered with the ball, while on the ground at a ruck. Deliberate professional foul so the ref was correct to yellow card him. There's no law in rugby that says teams have to be warned before being given a yellow card.

                                @Machpants I think if you look back through games you'll find similar stupid incidents like this getting yellow cards.

                                agreed, thats what ive been saying, i was fine with barrets one

                                Oh apologies, I must have got your posts confused with someone else. I'm an idiot like Scott. :man_facepalming_medium-dark_skin_tone:

                                You’re not quite that bad.

                                  @pakman man in front of the kicker at restarts has been a thing for years now...seems officials let some of those things go now, similarly hookers with thier feet over the sideline at lineouts

                                  Had it been a penalty which went over, should the TMO have pointed out to ref that men were in front?

                                  No, that would be ridiculous. As with any offside, the referee should interpret if it had any impact on the play itself. Clearly in this instance it did not.

                                  Had the ball clattered off the post and Hooper regained the ball or made a covering tackle then it's definitely a penalty though.

                                      That's why she married me...both inches matter.

                                      I actually haven't seen too many where the hooker has both feet inside the chalk without some part of a foot touching it recently. AR's should be all over that, not straights and off side. Not that difficult from the sideline.

                                          @Snowy ARs have enough to do already, what with looking for foul play and, um, theres, um...surely they help the ref with stuff 😉
