1. Allow penalty advantage for up to two tackles. Often a team loses momentum if penalty given.

2. Allow a team to finish their set if hooter goes (hull kr should have cheated last tackle yesterday and got defence set)

3. Sin bins for throwing the ball away, happened after nearly every drop out on fri

The ref's call when it goes to the V.R should go, if not, at least get some decent technology to assist his decision.

When a pinpoint kick to the in-goal is just raked out of play is infuriating.

I also like the seven tackle rule used in Aus when the ball goes dead.

Reinstate tunnel feed in scrums,

Play the ball with the foot.

I don't think too much needs to be changed.

Play the ball needs cleaning up, goes without saying.
Do away with the rule where they can scoop a kick out and play it dead.

The current grounding of the ball situation is fine, because it eliminates grey areas, all you have to do is find a frame where a part of the hand and the ball are touching at the same time as the ball touches the ground. As soon as you start going into ''downward pressure'' territory it gets left open to interpretation, they'll be inconsistency and the very people who want it changed will be the ones moaning loudest at the decisions when it is.

Agree with most of this, but to deal with the back chat and abuse of officials, if any player is found guilty of this he automatically concedes a penalty kick direct in line with the posts, from wherever the offence occurred, if the non offending team don't score or get the ball dead they get to start a set from where the offence took place, that would soon put a stop to it!
Also if a player is found guilty of trying to buy or milk a penalty by moving off the mark, into the markers or just playacting, then he concedes a turnover from where it happened.
Once teams start conceding possession and points the coaches and players would soon have it drilled out of them I'm sure.

Oh and get shut of the video ref!

Definitely need to change the one where you can put a foot over the line and scoop the ball out, making it too easy to defend excellently placed kicks.

Also the tackled player moving off the mark or placing the ball behind the markers legs to play them offside.

There's far too much gamesmanship creeping in and its ruining the honesty of our 'working class' sport.

Video refe. This is a high speed collision sport not a nano second over analysed game.
For those who demand consistency each tackle should be analysed for infringement.welcome to a 6 hour plus game.

The ability to place a foot in touch and play the ball dead is very negative - that should go.

The ref's call has been proven time and again to be egregious - that also needs removing.

The only other thing is to take control of the ruck back from cheating coaches and players - police and enforce it to the letter of the laws until the infringements stop and the game can flow again.

I personally wouldn't mind an extra substitute on the bench, but he must be in the under 19's or an acamedy player.
Where the use of subs would be less tactical, it could keep some players more fresh for the entire league AND give young people a chance at the highest level.

on the dead ball scooping, do people not remember the season about 3 years ago where they got rid so the ball had to hit the floor or advert boards or something outside of the line, people hated that as it slowed the game down, so they changed it back.

That's a good call - sick to death of seeing the ref directing players to form a proper scrum, like he's coaching a group of U11's.

Jeez.....you do realise you have Fonua playing for your team? I thought he had epilepsy during the LLS game.

And Tomkins started it.
