Approved Rules

Spring Player 3 and Aussie 1 have entered the ruck using 'The Gate'. Springbok 1 has entered without using 'The Gate' and must therefor make a Referree roll.

The laws of rugby state that any player wanting to enter a ruck must do so through what is called 'The Gate'. 'The Gate' is an area directly behind their side of the ruck which ensures that players are entering the ruck from an on-side and legal position.

So in Crash Tackle your players must first step on a space within 'The Gate' (marked on the diagram as light green spaces) before entering the ruck. Failing to do so may result in a Penalty to be determined by a Referee Roll.
