Offside is a rugby offense that means a player is ahead his teammate in the ball carrier. It is illegal for a player to pass the ball offside. It used to be the position of being ahead or behind the third-last defense, but in recent years it has been expanded so that it includes any participant in ruck.
The offside rule was imposed in the first version of the laws of the game in 1863. In the late 1860s, the referee was instructed to award a penalty to any player who crossed the offside line, but it was not until the late 1920s that it was changed to being the next-to-last defender. This change was inspired by England's loss in an international rugby match to New Zealand.
It was also modified to allow kicks. The offside line runs parallel to the goal line and through the hindmost point of a ruck participant. However, the offside line cannot be used to determine if an attacker was on the wrong side or as an argument to attack an opponent. Players are allowed to use their arms to tackle the opponent from "his side", but are not allowed to play the ball.
The offside law is quite simple but it is strictly regulated and enforced by the match referee. This is to insure safety. If a player crosses over the offside line, they are penalised and may be given yellow cards. Repeat offenders will be given a red warning card. There are exceptions to this rule, such as kicks.
A player on the offside is one who is directly in front of the ball. To regain his position, the offside player must move backwards behind the teammate with the ball. Usually, this occurs when the ball carrier drops the ball. Alternatively, the player can be put onside if he passes the ball. Like other forms, an offsider may be put onside when the opponent carries it five metres or longer.
The offside line will run continuously up and down the pitch as the ball moves. When executing lineouts, it is crucial to remember the offside lines. The offside line is not to be obstructive to the game flow. A lot of the time, teammates will support an offside player during lineouts. After the ball has been kicked, he must return to the lineout point.
The offside rule in rugby union is quite simple. It only applies during the rip, or the process of breaking up the ball. The offside line forms as soon as there is a break down. The set-piece may dictate that the offsider must fall to the side of the ruck. During a scrum an offside player is required to be in line with the ball.
A player in open play is offside if he is more than 10 metres away from the point where the ball is expected to touch the ground. If the ball is kicked to an opponent, an offsider may also be placed onside.
