Charge Down In Goal

[Ewok8341]

Hi all, just looking to clarify charge downs inside the in goal area. My understanding here is that if a team is pinned on their try line and they pass the ball into the in goal area to allow for a clearance kick and it is charged down it depends on where the charge down occurred that alters the outcome.

Am I correct in saying:

If the kick is charged down inside the in goal and the ball goes dead, it would be a scrum on the 5m to the non kicking team.

If the kick is charged down out of the in goal and then goes out of bounds, it would be a choice of a 5m scrum or goal line drop out to thr kicking team?

Charged down inside ingoal = 5m scrum
Charged down outside = 22DO.

It always boils down to 2 questions:
1. Which was the last team to put the ball over the goal-line?
2. Which team then made the ball dead?

Then you have to remember the permutations e.g. for GLDO!

If Defence pass the ball back into In-Goal:
And Attackers charge down inside in-goal, then 5m scrum
And Attackers charge down back in field of play, then 22DO

So is this the full list then?:

Attackers charge down inside in-goal and ball goes dead => 5m scrum to attacking team
Attackers charge down inside in-goal and ball is then made dead by defenders => 5m scrum to attacking team

Attackers charge down in field of play and ball goes dead => 22DO
Attackers charge down in field of play and ball is then made dead by defenders => GLDO

No wonder my brain hurts

It's a clear and concise answer to the OP's question....that can't be a bad thing!

(WR have made it very complex, with some common permutations not even in the Law Book)

the answer is DIDS (I think it still is!)

Defence In
Dead
Scrum.
