[QUOTE="Mike Rolls, post: 828020, member: 72439"] I reckon most refs and linesmen can work out where an offence has occurred - those painted lines tend to be a giveaway. Why would infringements become more common much more probable is that the long distance kicks at goal, which even in this day and age have a fairly low success rate and take up valuable time - especially when it is the likes of Biggar involved - will be seen as less preferably to going for a line-out. OTOH - I like your idea of scrum penalties not to be kicks at goal. Too often they are the reward for fooling the ref and getting three undeserved points Mike [/QUOTE]
