Piggy's mate Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Not so much new but scrums back, one on one ball steal, and injured players treated off the pitch.

tms Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 For me if scrums are back they should make the starting 6 and replacement forwards pack down not the stand off who can't tackle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phildog Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I suppose coaches might work moves around scrum personnel flexibility. Different moves can work depending who they keep out of the pack and the positions they take up. With uncontested scrums there's no value in packing down the old fashioned 6 forwards.

You do remember the "good old days" of proper scrums when, occasionally, a loose forward might come out of the scrum, being replaced by one of the backs, in order to carry out a choreographed move, don't you? Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that Iro sits on the panel representing Championship clubs I suspect that the injured players rule will be exploited still. The change continues to allow the referee to use their discretion so, if an "injured" player is in a position that interferes with play, I expect the referee to still stop pay for treatment.

I.e. it was pretty much ignored and forgotten about throughout the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
