Refereed a L11 game on Saturday which invariably has players in positions on the field that are generally not the same as a L8 game for instance.
Green 4 runs back and falls on the ball after an appalling pass goes over his head into the 22. There are no tacklers nor support and he lays longways and presents the ball in a "text book" fashion (still with no support). First Yellow player into the "No tackle" area arrives from green side and just picks up the ball (he wasn't offside previously) and away he goes. Howls from Green about gates and offside.
Didn't look quite right but I played on. Yellow got tackled and knocked on.:biggrin:
Having looked at Law 14 I think I'm right to play on but it is a curious thing to see and something I don't think I've come across before (helped by the piss poor pass and the lack of support from Green 4's team mates).
Am I right or missing something?
