I'd just like the current rules policed. Properly, regularly. Consistently

Coaches and Players being fined for speaking out about Referee's performances during Official Press Conference!!!
The thing that I mainly want is:
- Refs to not coach the players out on the field. Get rid of the dominant/surrender tackles, dont tell players to move and call them offside, etc. The only thing I would like the refs to say is the tackle count, 'hold, 6 again and play on'. If the players are offside, blow a penalty, if they stay on the tackle too long, blow a penalty. The players should know when they're on the tackler too long or are offside.
- I'd also like them to toughen up on the markers moving off the mark, they should be penalised, not be seen as 'shortening the 10m'
- Like the 40/20, introduce 10/50, 20/40, 30/40 and 50/10.
- And also ease up on the obstruction interpretations, I think theyre to harsh on the players there.

might give the tigers a chance.
Few inclusions to encourage open play and reduce predicatable and boring "St George" styleplay:
1) All teams have to bind in a scrum and wait a minimum of 3 seconds after the ball clears before they dissolve the scrum. With 2 referees this should be able to be policed. It would open the game up and allow for set moves. I also find it annoying to see a second rower standing at 5/8 for a basic hit-up or a prop breaking from a scrum to mow down a centre or winger before they get the opportunity to run.
2) If the ball is kicked from anywhere wtihin the opposing teams 20 and grounded by the defending team in goal it gets returned to the 20 for a restart (grobbers included). This would encourage teams to put the ball through the hands and stop this incessant and predicatable kicking.
3) Allow 10 interchanges but only 1 in the last 10 minutes of each half. This would bring the small men into play when the forwards tire.
4) A dominant tackle can be called if someone gets tackled around the legs in a "classic" tackle. If the attacking players "pig roots" they are penalised. This would discourage high tackling which all too often leads to careless and dangerous tackles. it also allows smaller players to pull off dominant tackles.
5) A player can be cited for "diving" to get a penalty - basically bringing the game into disrepute

Good call on (4) bbobb
The rule where a kicked ball hits the ref needs changing, possesion goes I think whith whoevers half of the field that attacking team is in… 😕 😕 😕
Hard to explain but its a dud rule

The diving suggestion, a bit too hard to police
Video referee's interfering with on-field infringements. I HATE it. There are 4 men on pink on the field, if ALL of them don't have a problem with it, I think it should be sweet.
Grounding rule needs to change. The ball should be grounded by your HAND. I can't understand a rule which claims you have to be "in control" to gain a try, yet if in a play-the-ball the ball rolls from your hand to your torso you're deemed to have "lost control". Idiotic really.
The adjustment to the 40/20 rule was interesting, but I think a 50/10 is stupid. The point of 40/20 is now, and it should always be, about risk and return. If your prepared to kick early in a tackle count like that, then yes, gain the reward. Many teams end up kicking from about 45 out, hence that risk reward is abolished.

Yes, until the referees can actually apply the rules, what is the point in giving them new rules??

Grounding Rule: Must be with the hand or arm, player must have a certain amount of control (if they are holding the ball they must control it all the way until it hits the ground, if it is on the ground they just have to put their arm on it).
If a player makes a one on one tackle it is dominant.
Bad reads are not an obstruction. If the decoy runner takes out the outside shoulder of a defender either commits to tackling a decoy by changing their line of movement, play on. If a decoy takes a defender out, who didn't change their line, obstruction.
