    Totally agree with the points you make here. Iwould take one of your points further, and that is stopping the clock not just when the scrum is being set, but when the ball is out of play at lineouts and when kickers take forever to take a kick, including the time spent celebrating tries. It may require a rethink as to how long the game should take, but may encourage players to get on with things.

    They are also pandering to the U.S. market, trying to attract more of them into it, which is a bad move as they (the US) would end up pushing stupid other rules to suit them and further change the game. This ruling is stupid. The last World Cup had several fantastic edge of the seat games. If SA is dominating stop crying and learn how to beat them. Scrumming has always been the Boks super power, but history shows other sides still beat them. Looks to me like it’s NH crybaby antics. Changing rules to win won’t work. History has already demonstrated SH domination.

    Exactly. There’s a reason that we love Union and those roars and behemoths like Beast, Os du Randt, Spicy Plum, Ox, John Smit et al. The scrum is integral and since Willemse’s call in that quarter-final, France have had sour grapes and then of course we knocked over England successively, ol’ Bill has been muttering down the corridors of Pembroke Street. Rugby is violent chess and we reward strategy and tact but also power and dominance, so teams quake in their boots against SA, Argentina and Georgia because they all have dominate scrums and can use that as an attacking platform. Let’s see it play out and the loopholes used around the scrum and deliberate fouls and watch the teams’ strategies adapt. I wonder what Doc Rassie has up his sleeve...

    The scrum, as we have known it in recent times has been administered to become something it should never have been. Scrums are awarded as a result of a minor offence, however as a result of the unique unspoken games that props play between themselves, what has developed has been obscure awards for penalties, which can effect the results of the games. This does seem to be an unbalanced consequence to a slight forward pass. Thinking back to scrums at school boy level, they just got together, stooped down, ball down the middle, hook and shove. Back rows break away as quick as possible to nail the 10. It didn’t take too long, and a couple of resets were all that was ever needed. Looking at Genge, as to how his game is developing in recent times, that is interesting and better for the game as a whole. Union over League every time, however Union has been shooting itself in the foot with recent attempts to ‘improve’ the game. Perhaps if props spent their time pre match having arm wrestling matches in the bar, then that would get that part out of their system, and then we could all watch a good game of rugby afterwards?

    About time this change was made. Scrums are now ridiculous. Watch the game from even 25 years ago when the scrums were over before the current teams even get to the mark. If we continue with scrum options perhaps we should again insist that a Goal i.e. a converted try has to be scored to be able to win a game. Current scrum laws make the game very boring most of the time when it can take a long time to get a scrum completed. A quick free kick will obviate the worry about a fully set up defence being in place.

    When you limit and eventually take scrums out of rugby, you have league rugby. I would suggest they rather apply the rules...like enforcing straight feed in the middle of a scrum to ensure teams actually have the opportunity to compete for the ball at scrums and line-outs, ensuring players are behind the kicker, especially at re-starts etc. And consider stopping the time when the ball is not in play, like with line-outs or scrum sets...will stop teams from wasting time by causing scrums to collapse etc. The team with the ball in hand should be given the advantage, more than the team defending (that could help limit all the kicking and the mindset to give the ball to the other team and then put pressure and hope they make a mistake), and it would commit more forwards to rucks and mauls and allow more space for backlines to create moves. And maybe line-outs should have all the forwards in it to ensure space for backlines on attack... Anyway, just a few thoughts...

    The other point people forget about making RL faster and faster is that not only did the body shapes become uniform, but it decimated participation from vets, over-35s etc. Simply got too fast. The knock on was those players dropped out early and fewer got diverted to coaching or reffing in later life. And that knocked on into youth teams......Which is why RL has such low player nos in the UK. Let us hope RU learns the lesson from RL's mistakes.

    ​@@rorygilmoreNZTMO in of itself is a great idea, however the execution of then has been nothing but terrible the past few years. 1. Constantly showing from stupid angles that doesn't help a referee to make a decision. 2. Is massively inconsistent during rugby matches. Sometimes a ref for some reason isn't allowed to make a call for a tmo even when they game is at a crucial point. 3. France vs Scotland 2024.

    @@Justanotherrando-ny3vr I hear you. The problem is that rugby is a multimillion dollar industry now, so lives and careers and businesses depend on results, money wise. So for the “industry” I suppose they want accountability. So the more absolute accuracy of reffing, lack of bias and human error becomes a thing. And remember the high number of bias accusations and arguments that used to dominate rugby news? That’s what brought technology into the whole thing. So it’s catch 22.

    i get the point of the rule. Its horrible having 10-20 mins eaten up by scrumming attempts and fails. Its just a poorly thought out rule. You could of just stopped the clock when scrums started. That way its not used for time wasting and for big lumbering forwards to get a rest. Speed it up thats what everyone wants. But dont get rid of the scrum.

    I am not in agreement with the rule but for a different reason. The games is for all shapes and sizes but since at the top level there are now eight available replacements forwards have become huge as most of the pack only has to play part of the game. Do away with the non-injury replacements and the forwards will have to trim down.

    Am all for this, in fact I'd ditch scrums all together. Let's face it, the modern prop, (the most penalised player on the paddock), can barely seeout 50mins of the 80 before being hooked and replaced by another neckless wonder. If it meant the demise of the chest-beaters then so beit. No more Munster killing the clock by making a scrum last 15mins. No more dodgy pens, and no more man-bun'd ¾'s running in to pat backs from 25yards away. The ball would be in play longer. The play would be faster. The game would be more entertaining and ultimately SAFER. Bring it on.

    Changing the offside line to the middle of the tunnel is baffling. Why? Surely it will suffocate backline play. As far as the laws on protecting the scrumhalf, why would you want to give him even more time to check for seagulls and draw a map of the surroundings? Make him get rid of the ball like a hot potato.

    As a prop who played in the 1990s, I find the modern scrum a joke. It has become a means of conning the ref into awarding a penalty. It is impossible to win a ball against the head. I see penalties awarded when obviously the penalty should have gone the other way. The scrum has been part of the game since its inception. The modern scrum is a debasement of the traditional set piece.
