[QUOTE="pastitref, post: 150694"] That should be what the rule is, say if you gain 10 meters the avantage is over, but after 2 minutes you havent gained that 10 meters the ref would blow up for the original infringment. [/b][/quote] Advantage is supposed to be played until there is a gain of territory or field position that is a clear advantage to the team who have been offended against. What you do see now is teams taking the penalty rather than the advantage by knocking on, etc, on purpose to gain the automatic penalty. Most annoying aspect of this is when a team almost scores a try, fails, and then we go back for a kick at goal. If you go for the score, this must be to your advantage! :bana: [/QUOTE]
