LIVE GAME Round 10 Magic Round *Spoilers*

They need to change the rule for dropouts. The now more frequently used tactic of going short and getting the ball back seems to make it around 50/50 or a greater chance maybe? Not sure about the stats but it’s getting to the point where it doesn’t appear to be a real advantage for the team that it should be an advantage for.
 
I know Haas gets a lot of praise and rightly so but by the Jesus the whole pack surrounding him are beasts. Flegler, Capewell, Riki and Carrigan are all returning great numbers every week. Good on them.

I personally like the current rules. Makes it exciting. Should a team automatically get it back after forcing a drop out? I’m not so sure. They didn’t score. I don’t think it’s 50/50 overall. There’s probably a couple of teams who go ok but even the best kickers get it wrong and give away a penalty in front. Still a huge risk. If the team is good enough to pull it off then to me that’s ok. I also think the defenses haven’t practiced the set ups right.

On a side note I don’t think kickers attempt kicking it to the sideline enough. Adds another dynamic.

its a high risk/high reward maneuver.just another rule to change in future when teams start perfecting it and everyone bleats about how unfair it is
