Or just go back to proper rucking?mol2 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 04, 2022 10:37 am It is too much about the collision these days. Far closer to 15 man League.
I agree the ruck is a dangerous place. Jackalers face the attacking side’s support players flying in past the ruck, no attempt to bind, and it seems that as long as you don’t dive onto the ball but go beyond it like a missile you are fine. Irrespective of that missile ploy to dissuade competition for the ball out of risk for your arms or head.
If the defending side do the same it’s a penalty and a card for head contact.
It has to change. If are first in and you intentionally go beyond the ball you have to stay on your feet. If the opposition tackle/knock you over it is ok but actively going to ground/diving like see has to stop.
At present "Sir" could blow for an offence at every ruck, that shows something is wrong.
