sizeable change in the Top 14 announced today. Scrums will not be replayed at all. First infringement (essentially first front row to put his hand to the floor) will mean automatic penalty.
They're basically saying that even though scrums are reset 3 or 4 times, it usually ends with a penalty being forked out so let's just get rid of those and go straight to the penalty.
should be interesting first few weeks.

I have to resit my bike lessons (16 hours) as I let the provo licence expire. Gonna cost me between €500 and €800 and I'm not gonna let some scammer charge me for more than legally required sessions.

Has it kinda gone back to the old way that if you were offside when the initial ball was played and you receive the ball a pass or two later then it's offside?

Originally posted by 5starpool View PostNo. If you are offside and attempt to play the ball (but fail) and this makes the opposition react to it, then he is offside. This is what happened with Coutinho. Because he didn't touch the ball though last season he wouldn't have been given offside.

Originally posted by dobby View PostAh ok.. so if a ball is played over the top and I'm offside. I duck underneath it to let my team mate run onto it. Even though I didn't play the ball.I'm still offside because the defender will probably react to my movement?

Originally posted by CHD View PostIf you're in a line of vision/blocking a route to the ball the ref will blow up too. That scenario will end up with a dodgy call or two this season.
In fairness, a goalkeeper will take up a different position based on the probability of a shot coming from Player A or Player B. If B is offside and the refs are doing their job, a keeper can focus on player A completely, as he would if Player B wasn't there at all."I can’t find anyone who agrees with what I write or think these days, so I guess I must be getting closer to the truth." - Hunter S.

Top Team - A (2+,0) scoreline should win this
West Ham @ 90/1
Everton @ 150/1

Smalling @250/1
Clyne @250/1
Lukaku @250/1
Cresswell @250/1
Coutinho @ 109/1
Top Midfielder
Cabeye @250/1

Ashley Young @ 250/1

Bournemouth players really don't look Premiership quality to me. Liverpool had the sense about them that the opposition was so shit that 1-0 was always going to be enough. Rarely did a Bournemouth player win a 50-50, and a lot of Liverpool's passing it around in the middle was done with so little pressure it looked like a cup tie against a team from a few divisions below.
