Sir Chadley
Jaws
Presently this rule is a real farce and I reckon the refs guess most of the time.
Last night two back-to-back penalties led to the first Cowboys try, must admit I haven't seen them closely enough to see if they were warranted. But from reports I heard one was inconclusive and the other a loose carry.
To me, it should be open slather, if you're not good enough to hold on to the pill then bad luck you've lost it.
But if the NRL want a compromise what do people think of keeping one on one strips OK and extending it to two men in the tackle. If a third or fourth come in and strip it then give a penalty.
Easy to police or another nightmare?
Love to hear your thoughts.
