The farce surrounding the free kick awarded against Michael Firrito has left the AFL admitting that more communication is needed about the rushed behind rule. Cheap Yeezy 350 v2 Clay For Sale .The fallout from the controversial free paid against the North Melbourne defender has prompted the league to contact senior coaches this week.Football operations manager Mark Evans has already said the AFL will review the rushed behind rule at the end of the season.The issue was also discussed on Thursday at a meeting of the leagues rules committee, while senior coaches have queued up to express their confusion about the rule.There has been no attempt to change the interpretation of the rule mid-year, but we accept that most of the reference to these free kicks have historically been about the player being under pressure or not, and greater communication on the other factors is needed, Evans said in a statement on Friday....
