You must be some man if you can lift and strike a free without bringing the ball forward at least a meter. There's no such thing as a 21m free anymore (if they enforce their new rule properly, which they probably won't).

If u read the ruling properly u would see that the striking player can move the ball back 7 yards,but must not strike the penalty inside the 21 yard line.

Complete joke shop. Clueless. Im sure if any county board were willing to challenge this they'd win.

So it's not a 21 yard free, as I said. They'll have to move it further out. It is impossible to be just on the 21 so there's two possibilities.
1- The free taker is further back despite facing the same opposition on the goal line.
2- He brings it past the 21 and gets blown up. But as I said, they aren't going to enforce their rule consistently.
