Rule tweaks incoming?

[Penrose Warrior]

Will the video ref scrutinise the PTB during try scoring situations?

Ugh, we know this will happen. A bonafide try, brought back for a PTB infringement when everything else seems straight forward. If the refs don't see it in real time, it's done - we've moved on

Every year there's a new rule that the refs are told to clamp down on, they blow hard on (already happened in trials) for a while, then forget about. This is the 2025 version

The team that will win the 2025 premiership is the team that can lower thier tackling height by 20cm

Look forward to the inconsistent bunker determinations of what’s serious then

There's too many coaches questioning it, so they are scrambling for yet another bullshit interpretation.

Nobody is going to get sinbinned because it's magic round. Some grub like Mahoney is going to belt a bloke in the head again, the bunker is going to deem it not serious, and there is going to be another uproar next week. In a week or 2 we'll go back to the same bullshit.

If only there was some sort of time period in between the Grand Final and the start of the next season to make these rule and interpretation changes.

We could call it something like, the off season.

They're talking about fouls that have happened but play has already continued on. Like that rubbish one they called yesterday against the Tigers. What were they thinking there?

How about a penalty of 1 interchange for the team of the player that gets put on report but not binned for foul play that results in a HIA of the opposition player?
In the case of no interchanges left then the player gets the usual sin bin.
Maybe a few tweaks to this as well to make it so it can't be exploited.

Who interprets what is a "serious offence"?

When you unpeel all this, the same commentators who were complaining 3 weeks ago about players not being sin binned are the same complaining now.

What the Gould and Johns of the world really mean is "I only want you punish all the other teams, and not mine".
