- Current Referee grade:
- Level 8
I can't now find where this was discussed but I've been questioned by players in 2 recent games which suggests I may not be consistent with other refs. Basically, I allow a defending team to kick at a ball in a ruck, providing the following:
1)it is not near the 9s hands or dangerous (e.g near anyone's head)
2) it is thru the middle and not around the side of the ruck
Players tell me things like 'last week's ref penalised this!'
Whereas I think of a ruck as players competing for the ball which is on the ground and using their feet only (I. E. No hands)
Am I wrong?
