Did I hear right that players are now standing 5m behind where the man on the mark should be standing so they can then move laterally across the ground without being penalised?

Indeed, that’s not why the rule was introduced. It’s at the stage now that if a player is on the ground on his knees an opponent can fall over him and get a free kick for “below the knees”.
Garbage innit, all you do is give up 5 m which can be the difference between a rushed behind or a goal.
Gerry Gee McLachlan said 75,000 on 360 didn’t he ?
Whatever, that’s a massive fail despite Taylor’s insanely obvious, sycophantic AFL beat up.
Thats what they said, but sometimes the ump is making the 5m back bloke freeze as well.
They’re so well drilled, and often in positions to cut you apart as soon as you make a mistake. And they have speed. It’s a mixture of discipline, instruction and fitness I suppose.
Damn them to hell. They will take some beating, which is really annoying.
there was once there in the last when the ump just seemed to yell stand at the nearest player, who was more than 5 M back. It was as if you are not even allowed to get on the mark. What a joke. A blight on the game
Unfortunately only injuries will stop the dees. Too much talent in every line and they seem to recruit well too.
