Pay it over the whole ground you imbeciles
If someone has a shot on goal and it slews off the boot out of bounds?
Between the arcs is the best method I think. Keeps something for the rucks to do around the ground.
I do remember one a few years back at Norwood Oval where the goals were open and someone had a ping on the run from outside 50m and it bounced at right angles and went OOB. That’s just bad luck and still should be a free kick
Yep it should be over the whole ground.
Im sick of sides going inside 50m from 70 or 80m out and deliberately kicking it to the pocket for a throw in. Its negative, boring, defence first football. Instead of having the balls to kick it 20 out straight in front to the hotspot where its much more exciting. But you are left exposed on the way back if you kick it here and coaches are the most defensive minded, negative beasts in football. I would love to see an umpire pay insufficient intent against the attacking team in this case one day, at least it would put the debate on the table. Surely im not the only one that this annoys the crap out of. Theres also cases where a player is 80 out with an open forward line and instead of having a ping and bouncing it through for a goal he kicks to the boundary line
I imagine Jim05 would make a great coach
