Goal from mark
A goal from mark is an antiquated scoring move in rugby union. It occurred when a player "marked" the ball inside his own twenty-two-yard line by making a fair catch and shouting "mark". From this position the player cannot be tackled. The player then has the option of a free kick, which can be taken as a place, drop, or tap kick.
In the modern game, a goal cannot be scored from a free kick, but in the past the reward for scoring a "goal from mark" (which is a difficult kick to play) was three or four points.
