Two different rules mate.

Downtown Chasers
A player is considered downtown when:
A player who is in front of the kicker in general play who intentionally advances beyond the point of the previous play the ball before the ball has gone past him.

Offside
A player is offside if he has one foot (either on or off the ground) in front of a teammate who ‘last touches, is touched, held or kicked the ball’.
In relation to kick, an active offside player shall not encroach within ten metres of the ball, when there is an opponent waiting for the ball.

Holy fuck Panthers being kissed on the dick by the refs. I disdain the rabbits too, but it's like the refs have decided that every marginal call will go against the Rabbits.

Odds seem high that Latrell does something dirty before this game is done

But he was behind the ball the play?

Cleary should fuck off to Rugby Union if he wants to kick 1,000 metres a week. #salty

Gone back. Nicholls is way behind the dummy half when the ball is played. Unsure how that constitutes "downtown". Truly bizarre call?

My understanding is that he's ahead of where the ball was played when the ball is kicked.

Forgot to add the part where Downtown Chasers can't be involved in the next play unless they retreat back to behind where the ball was initially played.

Offside can be involved if they allow the opponent to advance 10m.

I'm pretty sure Nicholls was way infront of the play-the-ball when it was kicked

Was meant to be a thumbs up, my bad!

Yeah ok, weird one. Must happen all the time tbh.

Oh yes, good boy

All good bro, I would've just blamed Rabbits anyway and offered a hug

Cleary is a fantasy god. What a season

Was trying to figure this out. Upvote awarded.

Honeysett running out of lines to put Cleary's banners for the season on the picture

That's another banner.

Keeping 500k+ in the bank for weeks waiting for Cleary completely justified and worth it.

You were worth holding half a million in my bank for weeks Mr Cleary.

Can't imagine HS ever running out of lines.
