Rumours out Montemurro will be the new head coach after the Olympics.

Are we all prepared for a string of losses and a rebuilding phase that a change of guard and players will include?

I am expecting it and happy about that.

When I wear their colours, I am the club.

Not trying to be difficult (also one of my gifts), but there was nothing in the rules Muz posted about the ball having to be in play. Is that just commonsense that actions relating to offside have to be during play?

It just read odd in that rule and had me wondering.

Not in that specific law, no.

But the very first line of Law 12 (Fouls and Misconduct) is this:

Direct and indirect free kicks and penalty kicks can only be awarded for offences committed when the ball is in play.

Direct and indirect free kicks and penalty kicks can only be awarded for offences committed when the ball is in play.

The offside activity (leaving the field without permission) would be before play but by itself it does not result in a free kick or penalty kick - it is a state of being. You can be carded for leaving the field without permission during a stoppage, for example.

When the corner is taken the ball is then in play and that would be when the officials have to decide if an attacking player is onside or not. The defender and keeper, who left the field during the stoppage, could theoretically be considered to be standing on the goal line by leaving the field earlier - although by its nature the corner kick could be 'the next stoppage' that wipes that.

Not worth the thinking from what you and Muz have said anyway - I just had not known that leaving the field of play could carry a time penalty as mentioned in the Laws so I wondered how long that could actually carry into play and if it actually ever got used in open play.

I appreciate your time to respond.

Yeah, I get what you're saying. But, if they're back on the field of play when the corner is taken, it's a moot point. But, in saying that, everyone is onside at a corner regardless, as you've pointed out anyways (it will be a stoppage in play too).

I will leave you with one thought.

As the corner is kicked (play has commenced) a defender darts over the goal line to avoid the bodies and get position in front of their opponent. They are considered to be on the goal line for offside purposes until the next stoppage, or until the ball is outside the penalty box and kicked towards halfway by the defending team. In the usual fall out from the corner, the defending team push out leaving the goal keeper alone. By Law though, there is still a defender on the goal line with the keeper - but in physical terms there is only the keeper. I am betting an attacker standing between the pack and the keeper would be called offside despite that Law.

It would be humanly impossible to monitor it from the sideline (inside/outside far side of the box along with noticing any touch from the defending team towards halfway), and ridiculous to require the referee's assistant to remember that the invisible defender is there too.

I am happy to go with Muz's overriding principle that the Law is included to stop abuse and cheating and this sort of activity is not intended to be caught up in that.

I am somewhat fascinated by the unusual complications in football when you read the fine print for its literal interpretation. Reminds me of the US men's team touching the ball at a corner kick with their foot then running away for another player to pretend to come for the kick who then runs with it. The ref took the whole action at face value rather than the technically legal "I had already cunningly taken the kick, Sir" and told them to just go back and kick the ball properly.

As much as I like to explore these things in here, I do not want bush lawyers (or real lawyers) to take over the running of games and decisions.

Yes, there is always quite a bit to manage and look at.

Scenarios are fun though, so it's good to ask these things.

On an irrelevant note, was fun to sit with a mate of mine when we were at uni, because once a month he would get his little quiz he had to do as part of the NRL Referee Academy. My favourite was noting that if the ball when kicked off goes the required 10m in the air, but is kicked into a heavy wind that blows the  ball straight back to the kicking team.. it's play on!

But on this one, yes generally it's to follow Muz's principle to take out cheating where they can, but there's a line I've highlighted that (I need to track down to find the wording) but, unless I'm very much mistaken, there is written somewhere an allowance for players to essentially temporarily leave the field of play if it's in an act of play (eg, that goal that Gareth Bale scored to win the Copa del Rey for Madrid a few years back where he knocked the ball one way past a defender on the sideline, and ran around the otherside - off the field of play - to get to the ball)

GO JJ

However, Network Ten is currently in the final stages — stoppage time, if you will — of renegotiating broadcast rights with Football Australia.

The four-year-extension will run from 2025 to 2028, and includes the 2027 Women’s World Cup, the 2026 Women’s Asian Cup, plus the majority of ­Matildas games.

The Australian reported last week the deal is set to be worth $200 million – double the current four-year, $100 million deal between Network Ten and Football Australia.

I doubt FA will be helping the APL financially, after all they are a separate entity and the Championship is not a second division.

US would generally have been the gold standard - but now that European football is finally recognising womens football, it's definitely catching up (if not already)

I’ve done some more looking online and everyone seems to agree there are 4 leagues where you can argue over the order based on preference or how likely different teams are to beat each other. In no order these are

More dramas.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-05/matildas-alumni-criticise-football-australia-1975-recognition/104056754

There's no way this 75 team should be recognised.

I played in a fan world cup for 'Australia' in Russia. I can't call myself a 'socceroo' can I ?
