similar to the newton voluntary tackle, then sinfield stealing the ball 1 on 1 then being penalised....

Just to clarify ...







but, in the notes ...







So nobody (Webb) can be "placed onside" under this law, its possibly a matter of the perceived advantage having passed (see earlier post).

Clearly a case of "Let's Learn The Laws Week" up at Carnage .... Then try our raft of new knowledge out whenever Leeds are playing.



Given the amount of blantant used-ever-week rules that are missed during the game .... Last weekend's laughable example was the penalty against Leeds for not playing the ball properly, proceeded by at least three of the Saints players on the first set-of-six after the penalty DOING EXACTLY THE SAME THING of rolling the ball between their legs and NOT touching it with their foot as the rules clearly state .... It beggars belief that this rule has suddenly just seems to have been plucked out of the air to use. Why now ? Why hasn't been applied before (I bet there are other examples this season where it as happend)

Why people keep looking at Hanley's tries I don't know. The game changes, the rules change (How many times do you see tries scored from the resulting scrum off a 40-20 nowadays?). It IS a rule, has been for some time now. Get over it and move on. We've all been on the receiving end of a few costly decisions. It's the way you deal with it in the next game that counts.

Someone's a bad loser.









I'm not into big boys. It seems you are judging by who you hang out with from your above post.





You can go collect your dummy from the floor now.







Hi there softcock.

Someone is now cooling his head for 48 hours



Others may follow

It was the correct decision though, get over it

Good morning to you too sir.

Was that when Jones-Buchanan was not stood square facing North - South when playing the ball? St Helens weren't guilty of the same offence or was there another Leeds indiscretion that I missed?







Care to name any? I can't remember seeing any thus far and there's a good reason for that. Breaks are hard enough to come by these days so what are the chances of one occurring at the precise rare moment that an attacking player is still stood in the defensive line, where that player immediately joins the attacking move and involves himself in a try? That's a lot of ducks needed to line up for that to occur. We probably won't see another one all season.

As somebody else pointed out doesn't it happen every single time that a full back makes a break from a kick down field?



While you're asking for examples - how about the reverse (given that controversial refereeing decisions are more likely to stick in the memory than support play). I for one can't remember [uever[/u seeing this rule enforced in my 20ish years of watching league...and yet many of the greatest support players in the game (Edwards, Hanley, Joint) have done exactly what Webb did for there whole careers.
