On the topic of JC being inside the circle, I don't believe the rule is that no contact may be made. It just means he can't get the charge. Why don't more players learn from one of my most hated players of all time, Bill Lambier? If you think you're inside the circle JUST DON'T FALL DOWN. The ref feels compelled to blow the whistle if you fall down (sorry rollo, it's true). Stand straight up and let the guy jump into you, but hold firm. It's likely to be a play-on situation.
