But I also thought Graeme Sounness had a good idea (it’s got to happen every now and again) to turn the rule on its head so that, if an attacker has ANY part of his body, legs, foot or armpit, behind or in line with the last defender he/she is deemed onside. That way the officials would need to see daylight between the defender and attacker to rule offside.
