Mikki, I'll let you into a little secret!...

Some 25 + years ago, I met this bloke, at a rugby bash or some'it like that, good looker and his name was Beaumont... Tall, English, posh manners, everything a girl wants... and I am not shy after a glass or two... [:$]... I ended up marrying the bloke. Not Bill! but this other bloke called Beaumont whom everybody had told me was like Bill! tall, English, posh manners...

Boy!... I didn't realise then that I had visual discrepancy!... I blame the whisky... and have been wearing glasses ever since!! [:D][:D]

But you Mikki.... if we was both footloose and fancyfree [:-))]... never know!  [kiss]

A player is in an offside position if:

  • he is nearer to his opponents' goal line than both the ball and the second last opponent

A player is not in an offside position if:

  • he is in his own half of the field of play
  • he is level with the second last opponent
  • he is level with the last two opponents

Commiting an Offside Offence

A player in an offside position is only penalised if, at the

moment the ball touches or is played by one of his team, he is, in the

opinion of the referee, involved in active play by:

  • interfering with play
  • interfering with an opponent
  • gaining an advantage by being in that position

No Offence

There is no offside offence if a player receives the ball directly from:

  • a goal kick
  • a throw-in
  • a corner kick
There you go - show off all you like!

It's ever so slightly more complex in rugby - here's a summary from the BBC:

IN OPEN PLAY

If a player is in front of a team-mate

in possession of the ball, or in front of their team-mate who last

played the ball, they will be offside if:

  • They are actively trying to play the ball

  • Don't get back within 10m of an opponent who's waiting for the ball

  • They move towards the opponents or the place where the ball lands without first coming back onside

  • The referee will award a penalty at the place where the offence took place
  • AT A SCRUM

    For scrum-halves, the offside line is the line of the ball fed into the scrum.

    So that means they can't go past that line until the ball has been put into the scrum by the opposing number nine.

    For all the other players, the offside line is an imaginary line drawn through the foot of the last player in the scrum.

    No player apart from the eight forwards and scrum-halves are allowed in this area.

    The opposing scrum-half has to wait until the ball is fully out of the scrum before making a tackle for the ball.

    If they don't, then the referee will be on their case.

    A penalty will be given at the place where the offence took place.

    AT A RUCK OR MAUL

    Most offside decisions in rugby union happen at rucks and mauls, especially when the ball is being recycled a lot.

    Like the scrum, an imaginary line is drawn through the foot of the last player in the ruck or maul.

    Players must either join the ruck or maul or get behind the offside line.

    A player is offside at a ruck or maul if:

  • They join in from their opponent's side

  • They join play from in front of the last man in the ruck or maul

  • Do not join either the ruck or maul, but fail to get behind the offside line

  • They leave the ruck or maul, but do not get behind the offside line.

    The referee will give a penalty to the opposition at the place where the offside happened.

  • AT A LINEOUT

    There are two different imaginary offside lines for players in the line-out and those outside the line-out.

    The first line shows the offside line

    for the forwards and the scrum-half until the ball has been thrown in,

    touched a player or the touched the ground.

    The other line represents the other

    offside line for the players not in the line-out - usually the backs -

    who must be 10m behind the line of touch.

    A player is offside at a line-out if:

  • They have gone beyond the

    line of the throw before the ball has touched a player or the ground,

    unless they are jumping for the ball.
  • The ball has been touched by hand or the ground, a player

    has gone beyond the ball unless they are tackling, or attempting to

    tackle, a member of the opposing team.
  • AT A KICK BY A TEAM MATE

    If one of your team-mates is about to

    kick a high up-and-under or a cheeky little grubber kick for you to run

    onto, make sure you are level or just behind them when they kick.

    If you are not, the referee will award your opponents a penalty because you are offside.

    The rules say that to be onside at a

    kick, an active player, not in possession of the ball, must be behind

    the player who kicks the ball.

    If you are in front of the kicker, make sure you don't get involved with open play.

    You can do this by raising your arms and running back to an onside position.

    This shows the referee you have no intention of joining play because you know you're offside.

    However, if you make no attempt to

    move back to an onside position as play continues, the referee will

    award a penalty to the opposition.

    Otherwise, it's all pretty straightforward.  If you want the diagrams, they're here:

    I've got two things to say.

    Misseyesbut - hands off Miki!

    Mr Tyke do you seriously think that if you want to start a band you will get very far by watching the footie all summer?

     Oh and just to keep the thread on topic - did you know that I smooched with Glenn Hoddle when I was 15?
