How has the offside rule changed?

The original offside rule was that if any attacking player is ahead of the last defender when the ball is played then the attacking player must be given offside.

The new rule is that the player can only be given offside if he is interfering with play i.e. he receives the ball, he obstructs defending players, blcoks the goalkeepers view, etc.


Were is the off side line in rugby when a player is tackled also if the player laid with his or her arms reached out towards their scrum half.?

In the tackle scenarion. When a ruck, maul, scrum or lineout forms, a player who is offside and is retiring as required by Law remains offside even when the opposing team wins possession and the ruck, maul, scrum or lineout has ended. The player is put onside by retiring behind the applicable offside line. No other action of the offside player and no action of that player's team mates can put the offside player onside. If the player remains offside the player can be put onside only by the action of the opposing team. There are two such actions: An Opponent runs 5 metres with ball. When an opponent carrying the ball has run 5 metres, the offside player is put onside. An offside player is not put onside when an opponent passes the ball. Even if the opponents pass the ball several times, their action does not put the offside player onside. An Opponent kicks. When an opponent kicks the ball, the offside player is put onside.

It is possible they are not. If the player that is in the offside position does not interfere with play (read: touch the ball), interfere with an opponent (make a move that causes an opponent to react), or gain an advantage (interfere with the vision or movement of the goal keeper, collect a rebound, etc) then there would be no offside infraction.
