new rules

[Fluffy]

So far headbutting is ok
Can leap over a player which equals penalty

---

Chargedown is not playing at the ball even twice in a row

 

[lsz]

Can not cop that head butt

 

[Dan]

Hapoy with charge downs but the head but should have been dealt with and particularly that there was a knock on witj no hands on the ball to preceed it

 

[Fluffy]

Add forward passes

 

[castle eagle]

how about lyon being taken out when trying to contest a high ball, refs let it go that give the cocks a penalty for holding down which leads to a try

 

[master blaster]

Add forward passes

yeah,thats the new rule change for next year,grid iron passes will be accepted

 

[The Who]

One penalty against us was recorded on the big screen as being for 'crowding'.
Now that is a new rule.

 

[Ian Martin tragic]

Was there some policy change I missed? Because I thought walking off the mark and trying to milk a penalty end up as penalties against you, not 'go back and do it properly this time'. At least 2 or 3 times the play went back for the roosters to have another go at playing the ball.

Mate that was a real bad one. The 2 Roosters players were aware Lyon was coming through (may have glanced at him) and blocked him from contesting the ball.

But on the otherhand, what an exciting time for the game!
So many new rules we have to embrace! Its pretty much open slather, do whatever you want, then its up to how the ref feels or what direction the wind is blowing as to whether he gives a penalty or not.

These muppets should be shot

Team in posession gets the ball back for a double movement too now apparently.

 

[castle eagle]

strange how for the entire finals series that defenders could lay on the tackled player longer than they could during the regular rounds. rarely was there a penalty for holding down.

also noted before the game trent robinson said that since they referee finals games different than regular rounds they wouldn't have much too worry about in regards to being penalised, & they went on to win the penalty count 5-2

You can change direction to block someone contesting a bomb
