Quote: rugbyleague88 "Why cannot it simply be that the player must play the ball correctly rather than they must make a genuine attempt?
What is a genuine attempt? Why not make it crystal clear and just state the play the ball must be undertaken correctly.'"
Jesus Christ, how do rugby players manage to put their feet into shoes on a morning if they can’t stand on something the size of a rugby ball. The RFL are treating everybody like idiots with this “genuine” attempt to play the ball. Like you say, put your foot on the ball and roll it backwards, if not it’s a penalty.
