NRL Referees Coach Robert Finch today announced that the referees’ interpretation of the
advantage rule would revert back to the discretion of the referees and
that, from Round 7, the 10-metre territorial gain for the advantage
rule will no longer apply.<br><br>“The 10-metre ruling was designed to
get more consistency from all referees, which is what every club,
player and fan wants, but it has become apparent that the advantage
rule interpretation should be left to the discretion of the referees
and that is what will occur from this week,” Mr Finch said.
