  As far as I know it’s dangerous play, because you’d be making it impossible for anyone to challenge the ball without things getting dangerous. You’re supposed to defend the ball by using your athleticism to fend off your opponents, not by using medieval battlefield tactics to force a siege.

    Games evolve over time. Get with it or get behind.

      Yeah, this is coming, whether you like it or not. Anyone opposed is just regressive and afraid of trying new things and learn new tools. Probably shitty player anyway and scared they won’t be able win matches anymore with their mediocre skills in this new world of siege-powered footie.

      Better idea yet, just carry the ball in your hand, much easier and can be done by one person…

        Streamlining the game, I lile it!

        Could mean great savings for team owners. Now they only have to pay one player.

      But they don’t allow siege cannons and mortars in stadiums :(

      Those damn woke are taking our guns away, it is not even modern football without artillery.

      Detroit add lions to their defense. Denver rushes while mounted. Chicago doubles down on drafting large, hirsute men for their team.

        I had to look up that word:

        hirsute /hûr′soo͞t″, hîr′-, hər-soo͞t′/ adjective

        Covered with hair; hairy. Covered with stiff or coarse hairs. Rough with hair; set with bristles; shaggy.

        Cool!

      Someone’s gonna do this and make the game evolve by making them add a new rule.

    Surround the players with your own and starve them out.
