The normal rules of a free kick apply, except in the case of a scrum option. A Scrum from a mark should ideally be taken from the position of the mark, but must be at least five metres from touch. If the mark was made in the in-goal area, the Scrum is taken five metres from the goal line on a line running through the mark parallel to the touch line but always at least five metres from the touch line. If a player from the opposing team charges the marking player after the call of "Mark!", then the team will be awarded a Penalty Kick taken from the position of the mark, unless the infringing player was offside, in which case the penalty will be given from the offside line.
