Quote: Sacred Cow "Afraid not. As Finn was (just) in front of the kicker he has to stay at least 10 metres away from the opposition player challenging for the ball (i.e where the ball drops) whether Hall runs through and touches it first or not and whether he affecrs they play or not. If he'd have been half a metre further back when it was kicked or a couple of metres to the right he'd have been ok even though nothing would have changed either way. Stupid rule but its there.'"
Well im confused,the only offside ruling i can find is taken from the RFL website.

Placed onside 3. An off side player is placed onside if:
(d) one of his own team kicks or knocks the ball forward and takes up a position in front of him in the field of play.
