Watching the 6N games this weekend, does the back foot no longer count as offside at the ruck?
The failure by all referees to give the attacking see the space they deserve is so frustrating. This is especially true in the red zone. Defending sides are able to defend halfway up the breakdown without any apparent risk of censure. And don't even get me started about players flying over the breakdown off their feet or attacking the breakdown shoulder first with no use of the arms.
Next weekend I will be assessed and would expect such over sights to be picked up and I am unlikely to have the benefit of ARs. Have the laws changed or am I incorrect?
