The captain's challenge system will be introduced in the upcoming NRLAllStars games. Here's how it will work 👀 👉
The captain may not challenge discretionary penalties such as ruck and marker infringements or 10-metre offside penalties.This means as long as there is a structured restart they can challenge any knock-on or stripping calls, chargedowns, players making contact with the touch line or in-goal contact that determined whether a drop-out or 20-metre restart was awarded.
However, if he believes an opponent knocked on and the officials missed it, he cannot make a challenge during the run of play. The NRL has stated that under the captain's challenge system, a steal will only be deemed to have occurred if a player"demonstrates the intent to strip the ball", and that incidental contact with the ball that occurs while making contact with the player will not be classified as stealing the ball.
The Bunker will also potentially be required to rule for the first time on when players peel off a multi-player tackle to allow a one-on-one steal to occur.Once a challenge is initiated, the Bunker will rule on whether the original call should be overturned. If it is, the challenging team will retain their challenge. If it’s not overturned, they will lose it and be unable to challenge for the remainder of the match.
