PVL has stated that when you are bring your ball out from inside your own 40m and the defense is offside it will be a penalty instead of 6 again.

Good move, something had to change.

They also have to get past this flawed “a faster game is a better game” rubbish.

That discussion came up a little bit tonight interestingly enough mate.

If they enforced the sin bin for repeated infringements whether 6 agains or penalties it would soon clear it up…

Until that happens Coaches will push the limits to gain advantage… having a player or 2 on the sideline for 5 or 10 mins would force tactical changes

Not sure PVLs answer is the correct solution. Teams will still find ways to abuse it outside their own half. Thought the best solution was the 1st two tackles the infringements should always be a penalty, after that six again. Bests of both worlds, but what would I know.

I would just add an extra 3 tackles in whenever an infringement occurs.  So a 6 tackle set turns into a 9 tackle set. The penalty is consistent regardless of the tackle count or field position.

I like the free interchange and injury assessment changes.

Yeah that is the right direction.

I like the changes to the six again rule. Given that it applied horribly inconsistently, sides were constantly getting pinned in their own half by teams holding down in the ruck.

 

Likely that it will just means that the usual suspects will get regular piggy back penalties from their own line
