[QUOTE="Larksea, post: 385223, member: 43875"] I know the whole Idea is that the refs are suposed to favour the attacking team at breakdowns but it hasn't really been happening as much as I think it should. A prime example is where you have a ruck and the tackled player has not released the ball fast enough but there are also defenders either coming in from the side or not releasing the tackled player IMO in that situation I believe the defending team should be penalised and not the tackled player who has not released. but it doesn't always work out that way infact it can be 50/50. A lot of the time it comes down to the attitude of the players rather than the ref. And too often attacking players are penalised when at the same time the oposition player that is going for the ball was either one of the tacklers and didn't release the tackled player or the entered the ruck from the side. At the end of the day the most important thing for a ball carrier to do is not get Isolated. [/QUOTE]
