High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In rugby football, the offside rule prohibits players from gaining an advantage from being too far forward. The specifics of the rule differ between the two major codes. Offside rules in rugby union are particularly complex to the casual observer. Often the only indication that they have been infringed occurs when the referee blows the whistle. This, therefore, is only a basic attempt to explain offside in the context of rugby union. While in play, when a side is in possession, players are offside if they are in front of the ball carrier. This means that they cannot receive any passes (in which case a forward pass would have occurred) or kicks from the ball carrier. If offside players do participate in the game, for example by playing the ball or obstructing an opponent (by loitering), then their team will be penalised - in the case of a forward pass, with a scrum; in the case of a kick received offside, a scrum if accidental or a penalty otherwise.
