It's almost as if this was a strategic call cooked up by game management and Storm management. I know it isn't but it's just such a dodgy piece of work...

You should only be able to strip the ball if all the players have come off the tackler (IE a clean break) then a tackler should be able to strip the ball (one on one)
Forget who did it but it happened once. There was a 1-on-1 tackle, a 2nd defender tapped the tackler on the back to check whether he was needed, the tackler said 'NO DEFEND THE LINE'... tackler slipped the tackle, ran 10-15m and when the 2nd tackler made a completely separate strip... boom... penalty.
Either the rule change was horribly drafted or the NRL is misinterpreting its own rules.

As a lawyer I'd be thrown in front of a disciplinary tribunal if I was paid $$$ to re-draft a set of terms & conditions and my drafting of a small, obscure, rarely used section resulted in widespread, unintended rorting of their intent. I mean what if it was a Coles contract or something and it was like 'we will issue a refund so long as it the money exited their account regardless of ANYTHING ELSE that hashappened'... then people are like 'yo I know I've already disputed this and received a refund through my CC company + eaten the food + received 10 refunds from you but you said ANYTHING ELSE so gimme my refund!!!' It's that fukking stupid. Furthermore, to assume that's how you'd interpret it in context is even more stupid!!!
Beyond Greenburg and the refs (and assuming a correct application of the rules is allowing this new tactic)... who drafted the amendment? Also, why wasn't it corrected early on to prevent the floodgates from opening.

So you also must be in the view that because Robbo didn't think of it, he is complaining?

Bingo. The issue was that ostensibly 1-on-1 strips were getting called group tackles due to poor drafting of the rule. Changing the drafting to something that allows strips during group tackles was not the intention. Thus, it's a dud amendment.

It's not THAT hard to make up a 'peel off boys' call. I suspect Robbo's quite strategically complained (with Nick's permission) because he has a plan for the finals.
No I'm just trying to gauge the view of the poster who said that if the shoe was in the other foot stuff. To Him, does that mean Robbo is whinging because we aren't doing it too?? ...I agree with Robbo that it isn't fair that one player has to deal with 3 or 4 other players to try and hold the ball...

Heard Gus on the radio saying, it will be coached out of the game before the start of next season.
I never was a fan of the origional stripping rule to begin with, but I think everyone accepted it, I don't know why the Nrl thought it needed tweaking.
