Things I hate about NRL rules at the moment
1: Play the ball - rarely played back with the foot
2: Scrums - why have them if they are not contestable
3: Offside at the play the ball - attacking team always has a blocker at the play the ball to protect the kicker
4: Voluntary tackles - to protect the ball or might be tackled over the sideline or in goal should not be allowed
5 : Walking or crawling of the mark - penalise them, its in the rules
6: Passing after being called held - penalise them, its in the rules
7: Knock backs regularly called knock ons - every game has this issue
8: Using legs in the tackle - dangerous and illegal another form of tripping
9: Pushing in the tackle - attacking team come in and push their player forward in the tackle e.g. rugby style
10: The down town rule - players in front of the kicker, the ball kicker should be made to run them onside or chasers must be behind the kicker
11: Dominant tackle - a tackle is a tackle, once made get of the player
12: Players out of position at the scrum - Forwards must be made to play in the scrum
13: Players to the sin bin - If a player is put on report and the affected player leaves for a HIA the offending player must spend 10 minutes in the bin
Probably many more issues as well
