The AFL has announced tough new bench rules that will be introduced to the game, with any team caught breaching the new policy about to be hit hard, by basically handing a free goal to the opposition team.

The harshness of the crackdown by the AFL has shocked clubs, with the announcement that the emergency umpire would have the power to now enforce an immediate free kick and 50m penalty for poor bench moving.

If the team caught breaching the rule is in possession in attack, the umpire will halt play, return the ball to the centre and then step out the 50 m penalty in favour of the opposition. This is basically guaranteeing the opposition side a free goal.

The AFL Teams have been given round 9 to practice the rule which involves a player not being able to enter the field of play until the AFL assigned interchange steward for the club during that match has been handed a note with the details of the change. If a player runs in before the note is received and approved, the new rule will be enforced immediately and the team will be penalised.

Any player who runs off outside of the interchange gates will also hand their opposing AFL team a gift goal, however they will now be able to return to the field as opposed to previously when they could not.

The move is the AFL getting tough of spiraling interchange numbers (sometimes in excess of 100) during single matches and will make teams more accountable for their interchange actions.
