I remember it. Different rule applies when the ball has bounced.medlocke wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 5:59 pmThere was an incident a couple of months back where a player had jump for a bouncing ball and got tackled in the air, Hemmings went off on one so I'm presuming it was a Saints player, Cummings then shut him up by explaining it wasn't a penaltynathan_rugby wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 5:03 pmI’ve never seen a defender get penalised for tackling an attacker who is attempting to score a try in the corner. Nor have I ever seen a defender stop himself from making such a tackle in fear of getting penalised.Firestarter wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 2:41 pm not really mpe........ not 100% on the rule but imagine some winger takes off mid air for a fantastic dive....... the defender rushes over and shoves him( whilst hes 3 feet off the ground)......... the winger spins rounds and drops like a sack of s&&t and lands awkwardly in agony........ would that be a penalty? Of course it would........ theres no way a ref/video ref would allow that imo..
It’s no wonder we don’t attract new fans when the tune in and listen to those imbociles. Yet another area the NRL kills us in.
