Didn't watch last night but the rule is 80 seconds after a try is awarded the clock is stopped. Essentially time still goes whilst you kick a goal but the clock stops after 80secs as from there you are considered wasting time.
Also It's is only the last 5 minutes of the half the time is stopped...
Exactly this. I don't think Vicious is wrong in that we need more speed across the park but it is very much we would be trading one asset for another. Speed is just one of many assets an ideal winger would have. Speed without other traits alongside it won't make a player a first grade option...
There was a bit of talk about the dummy halves taking the piss with it leading up to the rule change. Then there was a game after if had been in the media for 2 weeks where Smith literally threw the ball straight down like taking a bounce in AFL. That's when they changed the rule.
I'd say the...
Because a few years back (I think 2019 from memory) the people in charge of the game basically had enough of dummy halves just throwing the ball at offside players that they changed the rules.

Im still not sure this is true. Wasn't Gallant promoted to head of pathways and junior recruitment?
To get promoted into the position suggests there is a role below that he was promoted from a lower position. This would suggest there is more than 1 recruitment guy.
I agree that our club...
Thanks. I kept seeing he and Mooney mentioned together thinking it was Hamish Stewart and the link being 2 middles.
Then I read he's a fullback and thought this can't be right.
Seen a bit, not a lot, of Chevy. There's a handy footballer in there somewhere but don't see him coming into our best...
Nothing wrong with the off the bench part but 13 is such an important position in the modern game. The coaching team should have a clear idea of who they want to be there and how they want them to play. It is not a consolation prize for the guy who misses an edge spot.
As far as were there problems with speed and agility last year? Yes. He was often beaten in defence with limited lateral movement. As I said before led the comp for try causes last year.
It's not about giving up on him as a 2nd row. I still believe he will be a very good backrower if he is kept...
He's no comparing his play style, he is comparing his physical attributes. His speed and agility isn't going to suddenly improve with experience. He may learn to better use what he is equipped with but the assets will remain the same. I think he can do a job on an edge but I also believe he is...
Would take Seyfarth over the other 2 though currently we don't have enough forwards to think about releasing any. None of them are good and all are arguably part of the problem but also all are capable first grade quality forwards, something we are sorely missing. If we could upgrade 2 and keep...
Disagree that it has to be (certainly could be). I think defensive coaching and ability are a big factor. Not that they aren't told to get off the line but they lose the collision and wrestle, meaning slow to get back to the line, meaning slow to get off it.
