| Leeds don't exactly play the ball perfectly every time either. It is an issue that needs addressing however. So many of the current issues would be solved. Why we have this obsession with making the play of the ball 1/4 second faster god knows as the number of errors we make as a result kill you.
Hopefully the"fans"that are responsible for the comments do get a ban. Completely unacceptable

| The ruck abd 6 agains on tackle 0/1 etc has been stupid from day one.
It won't change until next year which is bonkers. They really should be more fluid in fixing obvious issues / abuses of the rules.

No idea why they don't just add three tackles to the set instead of restarting it. That would be simple to change and would make interfering on the first as counterproductive as doing so on the last.

The reason might be that if it's changed mid season clubs may complain they lost competition points due to the previous rules earlier in the season.

| Then they need to get clubs to agree to it.
It seems senseless allowing obvious cheating / loophole abuse that everyone dislikes to continue all year when it's a simple fix

| The abuse is abhorent.
But typical of what the Twitter sess pit has become.
It's a breeding ground for the vain and the dregs of society.
Why anyone in the public eye would live their life on there is beyond me.
What do they expect given there is little protection?
The whole social media thing needs a dramatic overhaul.
Sadly, the younger generation have become dangerously addicted to it.

Was it not on instagram?

Lazy players always looking for short cuts. Look at the PTB in the NRL compared to SL - the players over here can't even be bothered to touch the ball with their foot.
People complain about the six again - without it there would have been 30+ penalties on Sunday. At least it keeps the game moving.
Ref's clamp down and everyone moans is spoiling the spectacle - we can't have it both ways.
Game needs cleaning up and i starts with coaches and players and supporters who condone obvious cheating in their side - never happen, never have a thread on decisions refs get wrong in their favour. Didn't hear Smith bleating about two blatant forward passes in the Warrington - why because it worked in his favour.

| I don't think that's true, if we went back to penalties then the consequences would be more obvious and we'd probably get a cleaner better controlled ruck with players not wanting to concede the yardage on penalties.

It has never happened in the past - each year the ref's get strict on certain elements of the game - what happens - everyone complains it gets watered down and players continue to get away with illegal play. The ruck is no worse now than its had been for years since the emphasis on the wrestle it just flows much better.
Far harsher penalty the six again - with a regular penalty you give yardage but you have time to reset and get your defensive sorted.

| And personally thats what I feel contributes to increase messiness in the ruck when a team has lost the ability to control the opposition's momentum on the back of 6 agains and the get desperate and fatigued. I do think the game has become scrappier for it not just the ruck. At the least these early tackle count tactical infringements need addressing In the rules.

I'm with you. Penalise it. What hits you harder? Another six tackles on your opponents 10 metre line or another six tackles 20 or 30 metres down the field? It's a no brainer.

| An absolute no brainer. The lack of penalising it also has the effect of lowering the jeopardy. Multiple penalties in quick succession previously would lead to team warnings and yellow cards. I can’t remember the last time this happened.
I also think they should reinstate penalty quick taps. This is one of the easiest ways to speed up the game. All of this setting the mark, wait till the teams retreat back ten is just nonsense.
Does anyone have the stats on number or six again in an average game vs number of penalties in the last season with penalty infringements at the PTB?
