Hey guys.
I just want to get one thing cleared up as I feel were a bit ripped of with 2 minutes to go but I am unsure of the rule & seeking clarification.
I was of the understanding that If the trainer calls the game to stop for an injured player & not the referee - then that injured player needs to leave the field for a period of time (I thought it was 1min 30seconds) before he can return.
In yesterdays game, with 1min 98 seconds to go & whilst we were on the attack - the Raiders trainer was on the sideline yelling for the ref to stop the game for CHN who appeared to be struggling with something.
I got no doubt the call came from from Ricky Stuart to stop the game.
The issue is that CHN never came from the field & the Raiders had a good spell to re-coop.
If the rule states that CHN should have came from the field for 1min 30 sec then that would have meant we would have played against 11 with ball in hand for almost the rest of the game.
It might not sound like a big thing, but I hate continuously getting stiffed.
It would be good if someone can confirm this rule for me.
