Seemingly this would be easy to put in a handy chart in the Law Application Guidelines, or as part of each Unions (the ones that have them) Game Management Guidelines.

For me, if its REDs prerogative to play the ball, Red can request the sub, affectively asking for the referee to make the ball dead. Then the referee makes the ball dead, both sides can enjoy the...

I'll be staying away from the ball-carrier.

I was reading Law 6 for another post and read something that stuck out to me.

6.11

If the ball-carrier touches the referee or other non-player in in-goal and either team gains an advantage:
...

Even if there were uncontested scrums would you position yourself where this referee is standing?

6.10

If the ball or ball-carrier touches the referee or other non-player and neither team gains an advantage, play continues. If either team gains an advantage in the field of play a scrum is...

Why wouldn't you ask them what they are planning on doing if its relevant?

Referee and CMO

Team Red have been awarded a penalty. A YC card has been off the field for 12 minute. (Due to continuation of play.) Assuming no quick penalty has been taken, team Red would like...

So in the match of fuzzy memory, it would have been FK ADV?

Interesting.

NOLA Gold - used logo in the in-goal to define the lines
Houston Sabrecats - max size in-goals, with lines
LA Giltinis - No lines
Rugby ATL - no lines

I don't know for sure, but I would say that the goal post lines are like the goal line, the goal line is part of the in-goal, so the post lines are part of the 7-point area of the in-goal.

Just watched the highlights from the weekend, can confirm there are lines.

"Use it!"

The negative here is that our Professional/International SHs will not be ready for the pressure in non-MLR/ARC matches. Not sure it really adds anything, other than for teams that aren't good at...

If, you were on the MLR panel or refereeing in the ARC you would have to deal with (the crap) Law Trials, but I don't think you were/are, so really nothing to deal with.

This likely only effects a...

I don't think this is uniquely an American problem, have you scene the way round footballers interact with the officials?

Looks good to me.

...or touched any other player

The more I think about it, the first management mistake was allowing the water carriers onto the field.

"Please go away Water Carriers, this is not a time to bring water on"
