Ask a question

This thread is very straight forward, if there is a fact you want to know, something you don't understand about a sport or just any sport related question, then just ask.

For example, what is the point in a scrum in both Rugby codes?

The questions aren't just for me, if anyone has an answer for a question feel free to answer it.

Re: Ask a question

I've always wanted to know this. I play soccer too and I still don't know, which is probably a bad thing.

Re: Ask a question

Players have to stand behind it when a pen is being taken...I think.

Re: Ask a question

I beleive that the arc is to make sure that players are back far enough when a penalty is being taken, they are allowed no closer than behind that.

Not in front of the arc. You're allowed on the 18 yard line to the side of it.

Re: Ask a question

Yeah, It's to make sure people are a set distance from the penalty spot. If you imagine the penalty spot as the centre of a circle, the arc is a part of the outer edge. Either side of that arc, the players are beyond the minimum distance, and so they can just stand upon the line.

Re: Ask a question

Spot on.

They thought the penalty area didn't look right, so they added the 'D'.
