Hi All,
Just joined as I am coming back to refereeing after a 4 year lay off as a spectacularly unsuccessful triathlete! Just my luck to arrive in time for the ELVs. Most I think I understand, but looking through the rfu web site I'm struggling to find reference to the award of a free kick for killing the ball or handling in the ruck. Super 12 and tri nation refs seem to be spennding most of their time with a raised bent arm these days. Is this adopted in the NH? Presumably not coming in through the gate remains a penalty as it is to be "rigidly enforced". Am I also right in thinking the pulling down of the maul is adopted for senior but not U19 and below. Help please as September seems to be rushing at me at the moment!
