All replacement players must report to a touch judge and must not enter the field of play until the player he is replacing has left the field. INTERCHANGE PROCESS (for A Grade only) 12 (a) Immediately before the commencement of the match an official from each club should remove the interchange cards from the folder and retain the cards on the bench for use during the match. The empty folder must be handed to the Interchange Official so the cards can be replaced in the folder as each interchange is affected and returned to the club at the completion of the match. A maximum of 12 interchanges is allowed per 80 minute game of A Grade Football. (b) (c) (d) (e) As each interchange is to be made, the interchange player must report to the interchange official with an interchange card in sequential ascending numerical order (i.e. 1st interchange will hand over No. 1, 2nd interchange will hand over No. 2, etc. The last interchange player will hand over No. 12) for presentation to the interchange official. If a free interchange is permitted under Rule 12h the interchange player must present the free interchange card to the interchange official. In all cases it is the interchange player who must personally present the card to the interchange official (i.e. Trainers are not permitted to carry or present the card on behalf of a player). The interchange player must retain possession of the card until the Interchange Official approves his entry onto the field of play by taking the card from him after the replaced player has left the field of play. The acceptance by the interchange official of the card provides the only valid authorisation for the player to take the field. Unless and until the interchange official accepts the card, the interchange player will not have approval to enter the field of play and must not attempt to do so. Interchange players must not under any circumstances pressure the Interchange Official to take the card, irrespective of whether the replaced player has already left the field of play. An interchange for the purposes of these Rules will be taken to have occurred (and counted for the purposes of calculating the teams total interchanges) once the card is accepted by the interchange official, even if the interchange player s Team then decides not to proceed with the interchange with the consequence that the interchange player does not take the field of play. If a player reports to the Interchange Official without a card, he will be sent back to the bench to obtain a card before the interchange will be allowed to proceed. The Interchange Official will retain all cards until the end of the match to indicate the number of interchanges used by each team. Cards will then be returned to each club.

Other players must remain on the bench until the two interchanges being managed by the Interchange Official have been affected. Except for scrums, interchanges may occur during general play (i.e. whilst the ball is in motion), after any scoring has been completed or if play has been temporarily suspended by the referee (e.g. injury or caution). If a player is to be replaced due to an injury incurred as a result of Foul Play and the referee deems the foul play as serious enough to warrant a free interchange, the referee will point to the player involved (i.e. the injured player), then signal to the interchange official. The referee s signal for this player change will be arms crossed in front of chest with hands on shoulders. Interchange official to acknowledge the referee so that he/she knows that they have seen the signal.

The interchange official will be required to record these on the Player Interchange Sheet as a free interchange. If the referee requests a player to leave the field due to bleeding and an interchange is made this will constitute an interchange. However if the player has the blood removed from the sideline and then re-enters play then no interchange is deemed to have occurred. If a player s jersey is damaged or blood stained and requires a replacement jersey, the coach must notify the interchange official of the jersey change and the new number of the replacement jersey. When a team has used all of their allotted interchanges, the Interchange Official shall verbally inform the coach that there are to be no further interchanges for the remainder of the match. In the case of any Extra Time (finals) matches being played, any unused interchanges remaining from the total maximum number allowed will be cancelled at the conclusion of the normal period of play.

The penalty associated with the above offence/s is as follows: [Insert demerit points] Under the provisions of QRL Rule 5.2(1) you may be entitled to enter an early guilty plea to the offence which will reduce the above demerit points to [insert reduced demerit points]. If you adopt this option, then you must lodge a completed Early Plea form with the Match Review Committee before 3.30pm on the day following this notification.

The Tribunal will contact you regarding an appropriate time and date for a hearing of the matter. * (* Delete whichever is not applicable) Yours sincerely INSERT NAME INSERT TITLE A player who is included on a Referee s report in respect of a match and who does not receive a match review notification will be deemed to have been found not guilty of any Player s Misconduct. The club/player shall, within 2 business days of receiving the match review committee notification, advise whether he pleads guilty or not guilty to the charge and, if guilty, whether he accepts the "early plea penalty. If the early plea form is not received within 2 business days from the club/players, then the player shall be deemed to have accepted the decision of the match review Committee. If the club/player pleads not guilty or does not accept this "early plea penalty and asks for a review of the charge and/or grading, he/she may request to appear before the Rockhampton Senior League Judiciary Tribunal either in person or by telephone to contest the charge and/or penalty. The Tribunal will convene as soon as possible to hear any submissions the player wishes to make, determine whether the charge has been proven or not and if so, confirm the penalty or review the grading. The Tribunal findings shall be forwarded to the appointed independent members for Judiciary purposes ASAP thereafter. The following table is a listing of Player s Misconduct (short description) and the Demerit Points applicable in each Grading adopted by the match review committee. Revision 2, AG/RG/U20/W Dated: 01/03/2017 Page 11 of 14

Charges are graded 1 to 5, with 1 being the least serious grading and 5 the most serious. The charge and grading determine the base penalty a player may receive. The Base Demerit Points allocated for any charge are in accordance with the aforementioned table and do not take into account any plea reduction or the player s prior Judiciary record. The Demerit Points for the charge shown take into account the player s prior record but exclude any carry-over points. The carry-over points are added to the total penalty points accrued from this charge to determine the overall penalty to be served eg A. Player s early plea result: - 170 + 25 = 195 points. Each 100 points accrued by a player will result in a one match suspension. For A. Player this charge will see a one-match suspension with a further 95 points carry-over. The carry-over points will remain on a player s record for 12 calendar months. If the player enters an early plea of guilty to the offence and accepts the grading, he will receive a 25% reduction to the Base Penalty and also a similar reduction in any increase due to prior offences. If the player pleads guilty but disputes the grading, and the Judiciary subsequently reduces the grading to the nominated level, the player will receive the benefit of the early plea discount. If the player is not successful in having the grading reduced to the nominated level (eg from grade 3 to grade 1) the full demerit points for the applicable misconduct charge grading will apply. Any Player who has been previously convicted of a grade 1 charge on the 1 year immediately preceding an incident-giving rise to the charge, the player is liable to an increase equivalent to 20% of the base penalty for the grading of the offence for each such previous conviction. Any player who has been previously convicted of the same offence in a 2 year period immediately preceding the incident, the player is liable to an increase equivalent to 50% of the base penalty for the grading of the offence for each such previous conviction. The player must indicate prior to a hearing whether he wants to ask questions of the referee or touch judges. Where this is required and a match official is not able to attend in person this will be done by telephone hook-up. An appeal against the Judiciary Tribunal s decision must be in accordance with the QRL Rules. If a Club and/or player: Submits information which is later found to be incorrect, or Fails to submit information which should have been submitted, the Club and/or player will be charged automatically and will be required to appear before a RRL Disciplinary Tribunal. The Tribunal will handle the matter as per the QRL Rules. 30.
