That wouldn't count as a knock on because the pass was intended, im talking about receiving and dropping the ball.

The biggest rule change I'd love to see is an adjustment of the rulings on penalties.

If you are caught offside, obviously the opposition are given a penalty ( resulting in a 30m gain with the kick to touch and then an extra set of 6 )
Instead of this I would downgrade it to the next tackle being made a null tackle so therefore the oppositon gets 7 tackles instead of 6 in their set.

If the defending team transgress again in the same set of 6 ( or 7) then give the full penalty.

This is my main bone of contention as I believe referees constantly ignore offsides because they know that penalising a trivial offense like this can result in major swings in a game.

Other alternatives include the "lying on" penalty where again firstly give an extra tackle and then fully penalise. This would hopefully persuade referees to penalise this offense more often whilst giving more advantage to the team who are being slowed down.

Thoughts ???

no no no no . to many professional fouls ''cheats''

When the ball is kicked over the dead in-goal line by the attacking team, the defending team should restart from the 30m line. This will discourage teams deliberately kicking it dead in-goal from long range and also encourage better kicking skills when putting grubber kicks in.

Makes sense. good idea
