Message: [QUOTE="Thelmus, post: 2859604, member: 8988"] Holding the play up if a player is offside is acceptable to me. It doesn't impinge either side too much, doesn't impact on the flow of the game (its already stopped), and the offensive team is hurt by the hold up enough not to make a habit of it. Its in the same basket as simultaneous tackle/offload calls as sensible refereeing. The others though (tackle infringements, poor play-the-balls, offsides etc should be called as they are seen. I would like to see some simplifications to the rules to make refereeing easier. Kicks and players playing/not playing are a minefield. Make it No tackle restarts until a team take a grip of the ball (in hand). Treat everything else like a charge down, minus the restart. Makes kicking a lot harder, but makes passing a more attractive option. A knock-on attaining possession remains that, just charge downs/kicks that hit shins of opponents etc, wouldn't restart the count. [/QUOTE]
