[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 561774, member: 20605"] This particular issue is one of player responsibility. The official thinking here is that if the player realises that he is going to be penalised for not rolling away even if he is trapped, then he must learn not to fall on the wrong side of the tackle, i.e. he has to be aware of where he is falling and do everything he can to NOT fall in the opposing team's "space" at the tackle. Too many times, I see players making the tackle, and ensuring that they get on the opponent's side of the ball carrier before going to ground there, where they become trapped. [/QUOTE]
