Has it been officially ruled that jump up happens at the start of a coaches turn or do they stand up automatically when they start the individual players turn? Thanks!

I'm no rulzguru, but you activate it at the start of the player turn.

It can't be used in combination with Pass Block.

Thanks, but I saw in the list of the annual rules changes that Jump up might change to standing the player up at the start of the turn rather than at the start of the action. So I was wondering what the current vernacular is, whether coaches are testing it out or have deemed it too powerful or what.

The review of the rules is to be held in October, until then, the official ruling for JU remains "At the start of the player's action".

Cheers

The list I think you saw is Galaks suggestions - so its really a pulic discussion point for the BBRC rather than being any sort of official change.
