Subject: The Quick Tap

It is time to do away from the quick tap from a penalty kick. Essentially, the objective is to catch the opposition unawares any in many cases catch them offside and recieve another penalty 10m down the field.

Why should the defence be penalised a second time? It also always bad from the referees point of view because if you let the team take the quick tap, the defending team is usually back about 3 metres and if you stand on the mark and stop the attacking team, they bitch, scream and carry on because you are taking away a possible advantage.

The rule simply needs to be changed to something like, ' The kicking team shall not be allowed to take the penalty kick until all players of the non kicking team have retired 10m'.

Just a thought but I think it has some merit. It would certainly clean up this untidy aspect of the game.
