Like I said, it was something that was mentioned on bikepolo ca. Not that I give a f*** what those bloody colonials think of our polo, but it got me thinking.
ha, funny to hear a brit describe a bunch of canadians, americans, and australians (who write 90% of the comments on bikepolo.ca) as bloody colonials ;-) but the issue on those .ca threads is far from having reached consensus. some people feel like checking the goalies "off-ball" should be allowed, some believe there should be limits on time goalies can spend there, some feel it should stay the same, some feel goals should widened a bit. it'll be interesting to see what they do in Seattle and Philly with this...
btw, there are two discussions happening here: one about checking the goalie, one about the ball bouncing off of walls and/or going through the back of the net. it's a confusing conversation when it's combined?
