  • I accidentally screened Emmet in his attacking half in the game I subbed for Degen. He got all antsy about it, and at the time I said "Oh, sorry sorry, I was just riding over here to help out Bill/Vidal". Plus I really didn't intend to screen him out, so felt bad for doing it.

    If I had have deliberately gone there to prevent Emmet getting a pass and a clear shot on goal, that's kind of shitty, yeh? Or, it might be ok because I am in my defensive half?

    It's ok, because you did it to Emmet.

    Seriously, there is NO current rule about screening. At the moment, we can't even enforce the rule set that we currently have consistently. It's already difficult enough to ref, without asking refs to look at other things on court apart from what's happening to ball carrier. Actually having refs that have read & understood the current rule-set would be substantial progress. Sober refs would be desirable, too.
