Why the AFL won't introduce this rule from the SANFL is beyond me. The deliberate out of bounds is now to the point that it's almost a last touch anyway. The only difference is that the AFL apply the deliberate rule such that if you are defending and the ball is kicked and rolls over the boundary it's deliberate, but when you are moving it forward it's a throw in!!!
So for those unaware, between the 50 arcs in the SANFL they apply a last touch rule for any ball that is kicked or handballed and it goes over the line. Speeds up the game much better than the "interpretation" currently applied in the AFL.
Why this hasn't been applied is confusing to me.
