"serious" foul by offended team during their advantage play

[Robert Goodman]

Thanks. I hadn't been aware that there's now 8.5(b) to handle that explicitly. Used to be refs in that case would just rule "no advantage" and it would come out that way anyway.

Were you at CanAm this weekend? Saw lots of great rugby and some interesting non-calls by refs. For example, "not in straights" on line-outs were almost never called at all levels of play, similarly, I didn't see too many "hands in" in rucks called. Strange.

No, I'm not getting out much while I heal from plantar wart surgery, including one big one. Almost done. I only strongly considered going to Saranac Lake one year, 1998. In the last 6 years I've developed a highway driving phobia too.
