The sliding below the knees (as in dont do it) rule was brought in to reduce injury occurences to the legs/knees.
Should it also be applied to smothers where someone slides or dives in and takes out the oppositions legs out? Is there not the same risk of injury ? if it shouldnt then what is the difference is potential injury? and what makes smothering different to diving/sliding in to take possession that should see it interpreted differently?
