Just a question. When did the ptb first become an almost certain way of recycling the ball? I have been looking through some old Pathe film from before ww2 and more often than not the player with the ball would hack it forward at the ptb.
I don't know off the top of my head. I often wonder what the rationale was to stopping players p-t-b to themselves. Was it phased out in two stages? You could only do it if there was no marker,and you had to do it backwards,not forwards? I never saw the benefit of stopping the practice, anyway.
