Scrum time should not be part of the game, it is the oldest and cheapest trick in the book to kill time by rubbish (standing too close to the other hooker so you can't set, collapsing, etc) at the end of games. We are always on the wrong side of it. Scrums can take minutes to set.

If i have to watch another scrum reset in the dying minutes of a game i might throw my tv out the window.

So moral of the story: forget about running the ball, passing, creating chances. Just flop on the ruck and be offside 75% of the match and it's in the bag.

But also why many prefer league. Flopping on rucks is more rewarding than being one of the best attacking sides in the world.

Tbf loig has its own issues with their ruck such as the wrestling significantly slowing down the game. No contest for the ball, etc.

As someone who grew up watching both codes theyve both gone backwards.

I know they’ll never read it but I just have an absolute need to tell them how shit Skeen is

‘No one will fancy playing wales’ apart from almost every quarter finalist. Though they seem to have the strong support of match officials which goes a long way.

The Fox presenters waxing lyrical about Williams. The same guy who killed Biggar and broke his own nose when Semi belted him

Yeah, Stu Barnes, "some people may say that was a scrappy try but I've seen him score many like that."

L Williams careeer tries: 13

Is that 'many?'

Still scratching my head over "don't worry about the early tackle (foul play?) because there was a forward pass before it happened."

Sickening.

It was actually really bad.

People should be deeply concerned how the game is being adjudicated.

The game lacks integrity.
