PUNT ROAD END | Richmond Tigers Forum

The Age has a few videos - probably from the AFL - that seek to clarify rules changes and interpretations for this year.

Interesting viewing to take of my Tiger glasses and see how the umps view the game. The 'Holding the Ball' video in particular clarifies the 'prior opportunity' and 'made an attempt' calls.

What is clear is that the AFL has done a complete backflip on the bump. After watching the 'Free Kicks in General Play' video, there is no way that Maxwell should have got off.
