we've been here plenty of times before so its apologies for the regurgitation.
Scrum/FK/PK advantage - but the team with advantage doesn't want it.
Gregan started (?) the concept of the deliberate knock -on ... I'm really uncomfortable about that approach as it seems to most definitely break two PK'-able laws of the game. I appreciate others don't have this issue!
there is the general idea of "no advantage please ref" from the skipper/whoever - which seems fair enough presuming the ref hears OK and the ball carrier doesn't end up wearing the opposition who are playing to the whistle while the BC doesn't want to actually do anything that could be called advantage over!
Just a thought... what about the ball carrier putting the ball on the floor and backing off? It looks daft I totally accept!
The worst case scenario is the other side also just stand and look at it! (so just blow)
If the BC kicked the ball BACKWARDS ie towards own DBL would that count as kciking away advantage (under no pressure) etc?
