[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 275990"] You think so. I do not believe so. The fact that any player could mark the ball in their own half would discourage the "kick and hope" philosophy we have now. Teams that persisted with this tactic would spend a lot of time defending line-outs in their own 22 when the "marker" kept kicking the ball back with interest, and it would not take them long to work out that aerial ping-pong was not very profitable for them.
