Miss rule situation

Ronnie touched a Red, that was the Foul, he had not played a stroke.
A Miss is only when a stroke has been made and the Ball On is not hit.
No Stroke, no Miss; just a Foul; no replacement of balls.
as Jan says the situation has changed because no stroke was made.
What do you think has changed in the rule or that Jan has got wrong?
The Foul and a Miss Rules been changed (Sep19) but nothing to reflect this scenario.Up the TSF! :snooker:

The Miss rule has been around since billiards rules days (1900s if not before) to stop players not attempting a legal shot. What has changed is the penalty applied and that has been tinkered with over the modern era mostly.
It is difficult to cover a genuine and non genuine attempts at the shot.

Alex was called for a deliberate miss in the world final against Reardon in '82, it's on youtube, left a snooker escape about three feet short and the ref immediately put him back. The rule has always been there but hardly used and that's down to weak referees, the rule now is a joke and is used by many purely to drag out frames and gain points.
If the hit and hope snooker escape becomes very popular then the ref's will spend an awful lot of time replacing balls after fouls.Speak up, you've got to speak up against the madness, you've got speak your mind if you dare
but don't try to get yourself elected, for if you do you'll have to cut your hair
