[QUOTE="Kiwiwomble, post: 901487, member: 45355"] i guess i just see that as the lesser of two evils they do it deliberately in their own 22 and a quick halfback will turn a free kick into a try pretty quick The nature of a front rower is to be dominant in the scrum, i doubt there is a single front rower out there that wouldn't rather win a scrum then pop one. so the only ones popping deliberately are the ones getting shown up by their opposition and if your getting shown up you more likely to get forced up deliberately or collapse. so, of all the possible outcomes (get pushed off it...get popped because its unsafe...break your back...pop deliberately just to avoid loosing the ball) only one of them is penalty worthy...should all other situations be yellow cards just to catch the small number of time the latter occurs? free kick...get the game going again...i love scumming and love watching a good scrum battle...no one enjoys seeing a front row get folded in half by their own locks and the other front row time and again [/QUOTE]
