Position of other players at throw in
At a recent discussion I heard a senior referee say that there is NO distance that an opposition players needs to stand at Throw In (LOTG 2m?); his explanation was “if the throwing player is being obstructed then he just stands further back”
Unless I completely misheard the original discussion, then surely that is wrong … or have I misread what appears to be clear text in Law 15
