Big rule changes : Thu Nov 23, 2023 5:47 pm

These seem very significant to me - the game may look very different next year.

Praise the Lord on that six again ruling. It’s been a farce for too long now.

Expect mayhem around the ruck for the first couple of weeks with 20+ penalties a game until it calms down and then looks pretty close to what it does now

This rule essentially fixes the 6 again rule the NRL have had it since before we even adopted the 6 agains, mind blowing it has took this long but glad it is finally here.

I like the ruck changes aswell, should speed the game up and stop all the messing about we saw last season (us being a big culprit at times if were honest). Not sure on the ruling that it is the defenders responsibility to ensure that the ball is not played on a body part of an opposing player, that feels very open to exploitation.

Glad to see the six again rule improved. Not before time either.

The new ruck rules seem ok though making sense of them on the field might be another thing altogether.

Yay more changes and, most importantly/worrying, sees us moving away from the rules played by the main/strongest form of the game i.e the NRL.

The farce that is the RFL seem to be going big guns for the last few months of the year.

Hmm not sure on that one. The 6 again change brings up closer to the NRL, not further away. The ruck needs an overhaul over here so I'm cautiously in favour of those changes.

If anything the main downside IMO is that it will be a big adjustment for teams who are skilled at wrestling aka Wigan.

Wigans game plan of getting as many players to flop and lie on as possible is now out of the window. Well, if the pro Wigan refs actually enforce it
