Message: [QUOTE="Coxy, post: 2447312, member: 1764"] [b]Re: Round 24 - Broncos vs Storm - Post Match Discussion[/b] ^^^ This. But it all gets confused by the stupid "guidelines" Harrigan and co release in relation to what constitutes control/downward pressure/separation etc. They have made a simple rule complicated. It used to be (and by the rule book still is) if you carried the ball into the in goal then you had to have CONTROL and apply downward pressure. The reason being, as Dexter points out, anywhere else on the field if you lose control of the ball you have to regain it in your hands before the ball touches the ground, opposition, teammate, post or referee. If not, it's a knock on. This business of separation and crap, pfft. If you are attempting to score a try you should have to have control of the ball. End of story. Forcing a loose ball is an entirely different situation. [/QUOTE]
