We haven't had a new rule in a while ...

[cyclopath]

Who was against the funny bit?

I've missed the outrage here, which is really pissing me off.

I'm thinking of leaving.

Not you too? :lmao: :lmao:
No-one was against it, I was just highlighting 2 very apt points in Lindo's post, which sum up why I like the place.

So, shouldn't a post about a new rule about not starting a thread when you can add to an existing one be in the Rules thread, instead of a thread of its own...? :nta:

Don't have a spook/sook. (They're the same thing)

Hell, if people didn't dislike us, we'd think we were losing our touch.

Whether it's being sprouted or spouted, I hate xenophobia.

And the Dutch.

What did you have in mind, Scott?

Sorry Oom PB. Guess I have to leave! :nta: You will be the only Stormer again here!

RG, it's a joke from one of the Austin Powers films. The line was delivered by Michael Caine and sounded a lot better on the big screen. Same as: "If there are two things I can't stand they're intolerance and homosexuals". It's meant to be ironic.

Best news I've heard in a long while....


Finally, as a Force fan, you will all be required to love and admire me.....


Can't wait to tell my therapist..... :thumb

Is there / can there be an option to set the number of posts per page? I'm another not like the 10 zillion posts per page. My attention span is so short that it needs the constant clicking of next page to keep me going.

up for thread censorship?

 

[Dismal Pillock]

like the sound of this potential new rule (Jake White but still.....)

​

"With this in mind, I think it's fantastic that World Rugby is considering implementing the 50/22 rule," White wrote. ​

"Based on a similar law in Rugby League, the 50/22 rule would award a lineout to the kicking team if they successfully kick from their own half and the ball rolls into touch inside their opponent's 22."​

White believes the threat of conceding an attacking lineout would motivate the defending team to deploy 'goalkeepers' on either side of the field to make sure the 50/22 kicks are covered.​

​

free up a bit of space wouldnt it? bit ironic considering most of rugby these days is just

loig-style midfield hit-ups anyway.....​

As an aside, can we please hurry up and redefine it to the 20 m line instead of the 22? Also rename the 10 m line the 40 m line, as all the others (50, 22/20, 5) measure distance to the try line, whereas the 10 m randomly measures distance from halfway.

This is the srs sh*t that WR (World Rugby) really needs to sort out.

Everyone knows where the lines are, there's no need to change anything.

 

[Boof1050]

I think you'd find that Twiggy's GRR have been playing a rule like that during their games. From what I've seen so far the 40/20 rule worked quite well.

My OCD disagrees, beach.

Yeah it is. I'm just saying it's a mild annoyance that it is 22, instead of 20, when everything else is neatly rounded to 5 or 10.

 

[Dan54]

I not sure if like the idea or not, I tend to dislike law changes, but I quite happy to see how it looks.
