I just don't know what the benefit is of a hybrid challenge match.

It gets in the news but I'm not sure that even that's a good thing

If the idea wasn't retarded enough they came up with thisUnder the proposed regulations for a hybrid game, rugby league is played while a team works their way out of their own half, with rugby union rules taking over as they entered the opposition half.'"

It would make more sense to have League rules as the team works it's way out of his half and then continue with the Leaguenrules in the offensive half. Much better idea

there is definitely some mileage in having a hybrid Rugby Union game....maybe reduce the number of players on the pitch, change the rules on ball possession to encourage less kicking, do away with the line out ....the only thing I am struggling with is what to call this new game?..Anyone?

If the team with the ball get tackled 49 metres from their line then where do the defenders stand, 10 metres away or on the back foot of the markers?

benefits Union teams no doubt. How the heck would a league team ruck and maul successfully once they get into the opposition half.

Its a horrible idea which rugby league should stay away from. The only benefit for Leeds is gaining more media coverage etc.

You come at the king - You better not miss. It ain't what you takin', it's who you takin' from, ya feel me? How you expect to run with the wolves come night when you spend all day sparring with the puppies?:41106.jpg

The rules are awful...

thehybridcode.com/index.php?page_id=438

...any League side would largely be restricted to going for long range scores. I'm not sure how Union sides would build any attacks with the 60s rule in place.

As a Leeds fan I hope we go nowhere near this - do we really want to risk injuries in Scrums, Rucks and Mauls?

I can't really see the interest, if some of the League lads really enjoy the Union side of things then Leeds might lose a few stars next year or after.

I think maybe a high profile mini NFL V SL or NRL/Union Tri-tournament might do wonders for the world wide image of the respective sports.

Quote: Omar Little "The rules are awful...

As a former Union prop (loosehead) this is a must avoid game for Leeds. A union scrum is a highly developed set piece that doesn't just work its takes alot of effort and practice to perfect. Any Premiership team infact any national league team worth their salt should be able to screw Leeds into the ground at the scrum and be awarded constant penalties.

Even with the flankers dropped (usually the lightest) i'd expect the 6 man scrum for Leicester to be pushing 650kg. All they would need to do is drop the ball every few mins (like a normal game!) and just enjoy the scrum.

The only hybrid I'd be interested in is union money, rugby league rules.
