Message: [QUOTE="Brent81, post: 2555640, member: 8195"] Actually guys, I like the union rule. If you kick the ball dead, then the ball is brought back to where you kicked it from. That would prevent teams just booting it dead from the half way in the hope that they can reset the defensive line. I'd also get rid of 40/20s. If a team can't make their 40 metre line that's a poor attacking set, you shouldn't be rewarded for that. Indeed, I'd even go so far as to say that if you kick the ball out (whether over the side line or dead) from behind your own 20 metre line, the other team should get possession from where you kicked it. Consequently, the team that has had a poor set not only doesn't get an advantage, it is effectively penalised. If the defending team makes a mistake in goal it shouldn't be a line drop out, it should be a 10 metre scrum. Finally, the obstruction rule. If an attacking player interfers with a defender getting to the ball carrier (the onus is on the attacker to get out of the way) including by being a faux support runner on a break, no try. [/QUOTE]
