FTFY!

Agreed

Having just watched it, it would have been very harsh to have penalised any-one in that play. I would word the situation differently: as Curry lands on his back the ball drops onto his chest from the...

What Law would prevent them doing so? It is a normal PK, after time has elapsed.

As the ball was dead (but the half is not up) where play would re-start after a conversion - at the centre.

There is a difference between time being up and the end of the half. Once the referee declares that the half is ended, it is, surprisingly, ended. Until then, play out the penalties (and FKs and the...

I've changed my mind - 5.7b "A half ends ... unless the referee awards a ... penalty." He has awarded a penalty, so the half continues after time has expired.

Would seem to me to be a very sensible move to indicate that the player is not making any move that can be interpreted to be 'advancing to kick' (because of course that's when the opposition can...

It mainly seems to be the Americans who equate an ankle tap to a 'trip', which is prohibited. In UK English a trip is a lower lib on leg action, not an upper limb on leg.

This, but with a pause after the catch - if the throwing team wish to move the ball away from the LO immediately then they should be allowed to do so. If they wish to form a maul along the line of...

He was offside at the tackle, which was not complete because the ball was still close enough to be in the area of the tackle. Law 14.10c.

Agreed

Clever - did you get to whistle that match?

It would be :smile: ... arriving in good time at a club at the other end of the county; but not finding my sports kit bag until I opened the front door on returning home.

This. I was going to post "this is when materiality jumps up and bites": if there is no defender/jackler competing for the ball (and often there isn't at these levels) then they would be allowed to...

Taking into account who else might have been using the shower in the previous 24/48 hrs? I understand (and stand to be corrected) that there is a concern with life of the virus in warm (obviously...

You will not be alone. Possibly up to 20% drop-out.

Although I wouldn't be refereeing any longer in Ireland (!), I am keen to get back out and get my refereeing fitness back. Had other sports to...

bbc.co.uk/sports Yes I could not believe it. Haven't had an opportunity to try since.

Exactly.

At the end of the 6 Nations, Eng v ??, I discovered the 'ref mike' option on BBC on-line feed. I thought that it was just going to be audio, as I don't have a TV licence, but no, full...

For me:

1st lineout - the competition for the ball is over and Green's arms drop around White's neck, with no force applied. White not bothered either. No intent so in TV games let it go. At...

I'm generally laissez faire about the size of studs, just ensure that they are not sharp or rough. But those I do not like (assuming an undoctored image).

Was it not the time when he stated, very quickly, along the lines of, "my mistake, if it had not been taken back into 22 it was advantage over"? Not a major mistake, just an "advantage over ... not...

Seconded.

Would any-one ... ?
