Watched a few JLT games so far and what a total shemozzle this double 50-metre penalty is. Not necessary, confusing, miles to harsh and imo doesn't add but it takes away from our great game. My understanding of it is when a 50-metre is given - all the opposition players have to race away from the player who has received it and leave at least a 2-metre safe zone around him ha ha so he can choose to play on. So he runs forward at speed and all opposition players in his path have high tail it out of there. this rule if it remains is going to take a lot of getting use too because its a lot of space that opposition players have to be aware off and it almost goes against a players natural instinct.
100-metres what a joke they may as well just award the team a goal. Good luck to the geniuses with this one
