The biggest problem with the stand rule is that it is totally one sided. The player with the ball has all the power, the player on the mark (standing) has nothing.
I don't mind the basic idea of the stand rule, but the rule has to cut both ways.
The 'Stand' directive from the umpire has to apply to both the man on the mark & the player in possession - they should BOTH have to 'stand'. So when a player takes a mark & goes back 10mtrs to take his kick it is then that the umpire should call 'Stand'. Both the player in possession & the man on the mark must now 'Stand'. If either player moves then its either 'play on' or its a 50mtr penalty, depending on who moved first. It would be absolutely cut & dry if 'Stand' was made to cut both ways - its a definite, obvious 50 or its play on, but no ... we have to have this rubbish instead.
Its this imbalance in the rule that people hate so much, plus all Richmond supporters know why it was made this way ...
