Hello all, first post here, hope I don't make anything wrong :hap:
Today I was looking at the 2018 laws and noticed something that looked a bit different to me:
[LAWS]8.2: A try is scored when an attacking player:
[FONT=fs_blakeregular]e) Who is in touch or touch-in-goal, grounds the ball in the opponents’ in-goal provided the player is not holding the ball.[/FONT][/LAWS]
I simply cannot grasp it. Was this a rule in 2017 laws, was this already in practice and I'm seeing it for the first time, or is this a new thing? Aren't you supposed not to be in touch or touch-in-goal in order to score a try?
Also if this is a thing is the following scenario a try?
Red 10 kicks the ball into the In-goal near the touch in goal line, red 14 who was behind Red 10, who is onside, runs outside of the flag post and puts his hand on the ball, which is In-goal, while his feet are in touch.
Anyway, thanks in advance :hap:
