Hi All, been reading and lurking for a while and finally decided to post on here. This may have been covered before with regards to offside but is there any point the touch judges call this? Never seems to be a TJ call on offside or much else these days.

Apologies if this will drag us off topic too but should we not incorporate the NRL video ref style now. Still make our refs make a decision instead of them going I'm not sure let someone else do it

I did ask the question @RLferees #askthe ref and the answer was No we cannot check for offside on the 10 metres, it's an onfield decision.

Fair does, you live and you learn!

I noticed too that they gave that response on twitter. But a SL referee actually said that it is not written in the rules that they cannot go to the video ref for offside on an interception but they have an agreement between the referees that they will not do this as they would end up checking every interception and disrupting the flow of the game.

But, there are less tries scored from interceptions than from kicks and the referees generally check for offside from the kick. They don't check with the video ref from a kick in open play, only for tries, so they could /should do the same for a try scored from an interception.
