I might have missed it but I can't find it in the rules/interpretations to call out the runner if he doesn't interfere with the play with intent.

The bottom line for interference in FED is intent. F6 and F4 should be coached to make the play properly and this play will NEVER happen.

If a player is hit with no intent I can't find it to penalize him.

All this talk about safety is good, but it has to coincide with the rules.

FPSR was put in the book to protect the F6 or F4, not the runner.

Thanks

Read Rumbles ruling and Situation 19 from 2006 interprations and stop agreeing with PWL. You will be better for it.
