[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 609856, member: 45598"] And it would be glorious! :p There's a certain team that played the All Blacks at the weekend that could have taken advantage of this law! I agree with this change but no team is exposing it enough for the IRB to change it at the moment. I'm not 100 percent sure what the ruling is here but I played a match yesterday where my team were constantly pinged for not releasing the tackled player before going for the ball even when there was a wrestle for the ball before the player was brought to ground, I think it was correct interpretation of the laws although when the other team did it we got done for holding on but that's what happens when an ex-pupil of the famous Blackrock acedemy for ***** referees a Blackrock game. Basically I think if you already have your hands on the ball when the player goes to ground you shouldn't have to release, if that's illegal anyway? [/QUOTE]
