Richmond Rant / Re: The Stand rule [merged]
« Last post by Simonator on Today at 03:16:49 PM »Is there clarification on if only 1 player has to stand, or is it all players in the protected zone ?
Does the umpire just pick a player and yell their name to stand ?
I suppose players normally sort it out with each other who is to stand the mark depending on where the ball is on the ground etc.
Geez it’s sad to see the game slowly brought to its knees.
Won’t be long until there’s zones and players have to stay in either the fwd line, midfield or backline

Now the dumbest rule in football gets an extension! Not only is it a territory gobbling machine, with the new extension it becomes a loose man generator!
So, what's the go now once a 50mtr penalty has been awarded when the second man in the 5mtr zone moves - does he have to stay in the 5mtr zone & continue to 'stand' with the original man on the mark, or can he move away (& man up)?
Not so much of a 5mtr exclusion rule ... more of a Bermuda Triangle, dragging footballers down to their death ...

« Last post by WilliamPowell on Today at 10:09:30 AM »The "new" stand rule is going to create massive issues
Scenario: 3 blokes in a tackling contest. 2 from say Richmond, 1 from say N0rt. Umpires plucks out a free to N0rt. Which Richmond player has to stand? How much time for the other player to get out of the protective area? What happens if both players go to leave the protective area becuase the ump has nominated either player to stand? Is that 50 metres? What happens if both stand? Rules says they both can't stand the mark. Is that 50
A stupid and pathetic rule made even more ridiculous by HQ. Had high hopes we'd get parts of our game back when Swann was appointed but nope, his goal appears to be to ruin it even more. Straight out of the SHocking playbook
