The RFL Laws Committee has elected not to outlaw shoulder charges until the Rugby League International Federation concludes its own consultation on the use of the technique.
The NRL has banned the shoulder charge from 2013 but the technique remains legal under International Rules and will continue to be allowed in all RFL-run competitions.READ MORE ON THIS STORY....

| Good call in my opinion. I'd love to see statistics of when injuries occur in the collision and whether shoulder charges actually do result in injury often.

| Why are we even having to bother with looking in to this? Just because the aussies introduce something to their domestic game we have to? I'm delighted this has been put off, for now. Here's hoping we don't concede down the line. A shoulder charge is fine by me, we are not playing tiddlywinks.

| Only a matter of time.
The RLIF effectively is the ARL, so if they want it banned it will be.

| and if the RLIF ban the shoulder charge could SLE not bring in a local rue allowing it? you know, like the aussies do when they want a rule change that no one else wants keep the shoulder charge, there is nothing wrong with it whatsoever.

We’re only interested in those in the bubble. Anyone who wants to come in the bubble, you can come in.

| All this bravado is fine, but what's the reality? In an interview with Radio Leeds a couple of weeks ago, John Kear explained that the danger to the players, whether they like it or not, is too great for it to be allowed to stay in place. He was firmly in agreement with it being outlawed. The ban will come to the UK eventually.

One man does not equate with the whole of the rugby league world. I don't think it will be banned here. In fact, I don't think the ban in the NRL will last.

But it has been statistically proven it is not dangerous. It makes up such a small percentage of injuries. Players can get seriously injured from been lifted up in the tackle.. Should we ban this as well?

There is an inherent danger in rugby league as a whole. To attempt to remove it would be to sanitise or even kill off the game totally. It's a contact sport, there is always a risk. Don't like it? Take up golf.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

The point being that if the shoulder charge is not done correctly it can be extremely dangerous, and quite often it is down to a subjective ' guess ' by the ref as to wether the person was deliberatly attempting to injure, or it was accidental
If they decide to retain it, then it must be made clear any ' accidents ' will not be tolerated and will be severely punished

| What will be very interesting is how the ban unfolds in the NRL. How will it be interpreted & policed by the refs and players/coaches?

Players are not supposed to be lifted at the moment. As soon as one foot is off the ground the ref is supposed to call held.
Very few injuries arise from high tackles too, it doesn't mean high tackles should be legal.
Personally, I wouldn't ban it but make it very clear that if you get a shoulder charge even slightly wrong by accident it's a straight red card. If you want to make a shoulder charge you're going to have to make sure that there'll be no contact with the head or you'll be spending a long time on the sidelines.

| Going to be a mess with good tough tackles penalised. Expect to hear a lot of fan whinging this season.
