[QUOTE="Guilty, post: 667198, member: 71378"] You and me both mate. As you pointed out, there is close to zero consistency with interpretation of the laws amongst referees and really who can blame them? I mean how often will you be watching a game live and as soon as there is a scrum related penalty the commentators will say it is for one thing and the referee awards it for something completely different? I see this all the time. Maybe it is because I am an Australian and there is a strong dislike for slow, set piece dominated rugby in my blood but I view the scrum as the biggest problem with our game today. Still cannot every see the IRB doing anything significant about it as this is a major area NH teams are able to compete with SH sides. Frustrating... [/QUOTE]
