I was thinking about the rules and I started thinking about what rules I would change.....and was wondering which all of you would change...
Here is what I think!!
Here are the points of the game that i believe should be changed.
Scrums- The ball must be fed into the middle of the scrum or penalty goes the way of the opposition for incorrect scrum feed. OR not have scrums at all and it is simply a trun over.
Golden Point extra time- this should be non existent during normal season, if it ends in a tie that's how it stays, obviously the teams played well enough to keep it at a tie therefore they deserve a point each, but come into the finals then obviously they need golden point as not all teams can advance, when it comes to representative games golden point should be kept!
Stripping of the ball - this should be gone completely, it is a rule that doesnt nothing but cause problems, for players, coaches, officials and fans alike.
Obstructions - going back to the Dragons and Bulldogs game when a team is on the attack there is no reason for any of their players to be standing right in from of the oppositions deffense. therefore if they are seen standing right infront of the defense or if they walk into line with the defence as O'mealy did then it should be a penalty.
Video Ref - this is something that should be done away with. They are not getting any more calls right then what they were in the 80's without the video ref. All the video ref does is chew up time and slow down the game. There's no need for it they have one ref and two touch judges on the field, thats all they need. This will in effect let the game flow and speed it up to the pace it should be played at.
Tackles - the definition of what is a head high, graple, dangerous etc etc should be reviewed and made absolutly clear, so that there aren't uneccesarry calls. I don't know about you guys but i'd hate to see any grand final determined by a call like that.
Salary cap - this should be a thing that involves imput from clubs, and the NRL as the NRL don't know the inside workings of each club therefore they do not know their needs, hence the most effective way would be to involve club management OR start pushing for clubs to become at least part privatised.
and the last thing i think should change is this buisness where players have not heard calls made.There have been two incidents that i know of one was involving the Dragons and the other I cant remember the team, but either way the ref made a call but the player in question did not hear the play the ball call and proceeded to play on, now to me it should just simply be taken back and the player be made to play the ball, as lets face it your in a stadium with 30,000 odd fans screaming it would become a bit hard to hear calls, BUT if a particular player time and time again goes againts calls that are made THEN and only then should they award a penalty.
