Martin Laird incident

How would you word the rule?

Could you not use the new LR for a ball moving on the green as a template

Great idea! Then stand back and watch the dramatic increase in balls being accidentally kicked in the rough and being "replaced'.

Obviously a little bit of mischief in my post but thinking it through, the players you're talking about are probably already cheating and breaking other rules so why would giving them one more to break be a bigger problem

The only guys who are 'victims' but cant prove their innocence to FC's based on a balance of probability would put the ball back correctly no advantage gained
