Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2467563, member: 1764"] That article is just so much bullshit I don't know where to start. For one thing, the only references to Obstruction in the rule book before a few years ago was "a player must not obstruct a player not in possession of the ball". That's both in terms of defenders interfering with support players, and decoy/support runners interfering with defenders. There was no reference to running behind a teammate, or sweep moves, or scissor moves etc before they started overcomplicating things this decade. Just look back at this video that Gus and Vossy (very adamantly against the so-called shepherd from Hodges) showed on Boots n All. By their definition, nearly every single move would result in a penalty because a decoy ended up in front of the ball runner, or the ball runner intentionally ran behind teammates.
