Once, many years ago, we played at an indoor tournament in Wolverhampton
where dropped pulls were not counted as a turnover. In the first game, the
Bears (Wacky i believe) pulled to us and Graeme Duckworth (tells you how
long ago it was) macked (?) the disc so hard it landed three quarters of
the way up the pitch. Naturally, being a good natured chap, he brought the
disc back to our own end-zone line.... So I think if you explicity threw
out the dropped pull rule you'd have more problems not less.
