NRL six-again rule should be scrapped, according to coach Ricky Stuart

Ricky Stuart urges scrapping NRL's six-again rule, citing negative impacts on the game's integrity.

Canberra Raiders coach Ricky Stuart says the NRL has lost the fabric of its game, leading to the anger over the league's controversial six-again rule change.

Six years after the set restart was introduced, the competition's call to implement six-agains between the 20 and 40-metre line has led to the biggest change to games since 2021.

It has allowed teams to have long possession runs, making fatigue a significant factor for defenders and caused margins to blow out.

The Raiders are one of the sides suffering, leaking the second-most points in the league (182), with Parramatta the only team to concede more (226).
