[QUOTE="Dunhookin, post: 826953, member: 74570"] Yep kind of agree with your first point Cooky - but the team 'winning' the scrum has done nothing to win it - the ball has been put straight in the 2nd row. Agree 100% with your 2nd point - no brainer. That the scrum should not be a penalty fest - absolutely right - and IMO the laws of the game as written do our scrum an injustice. It is much more than a way to re-start the game, it is a technical and physical contest, it is a platform to attack, it is a means of exerting dominance and control of a match and it should be a source of fast ball to attack with. Agree on your use it point - perfectly fair. And point 3 - actually we do want to see a scrummaging contest - a fair one - one where the laws of the game are correctly applied - because this type of scrum produces fast ball - and it's game on.
