Rugby union ball gets kicked dead?

Question

fisrt question . just say you are 30 metres out and you kick the ball and it goes over the dead ball line what happens then . quetion 2 is if you have a 22 drop out and it goes all the way to the other end and goes dead is it the same as the other question

Answer 1

The answer is the same to both questions.  Here is the law from the International Rugby Board (IRB).

"22.8 BALL KICKED DEAD IN IN-GOAL

If a team kicks the ball through their opponents’ in-goal, into

touch-in-goal or on or over the dead ball line, except by an

unsuccessful kick at goal or attempted dropped goal, the defending team has two choices:

To have a drop out,

or

To have a scrum at the place where the ball was kicked and they throw in."

I would guess most teams would ask for the scrum where the ball was kicked.  In the first question, it would be 30 metres from their try line, the second question would be 22 metres from your try line.

This is part of law 22.  The pdf for law 22 (in English) can be found here:
