There were a couple of instances at the weekend during 6N games of players playing the ball when they were on the ground. For example ball comes out of a ruck/tackle area, a player still off their feet from a previous phase gathers the ball and passes it on, or even tackles a player before they‘ve got back to their feet. It was let go at the weekend but I’ve always refereed it as a player on the floor is out of the game.
What’s the forum’s view on this? Can a player off their feet play the ball and/or tackle players?
