That's quite a CV he boasts, which makes his ignorance all the more impressive, and his moaning all the more petulent

I can't help but think that if they didn't throw the ball so high they'd all have a chance of catching it.

Or just throw it to the bloke right infront of the lineout? No one would suspect that.

Piggy in the middle just got serious.

Whilst lifting always went on covertly, they've just made it a joke now by having one nominated catcher that goes about 11 feet up ....

They do get the ball back in play fairly quickly but it leads to specialised back and 2nd rowers whose 1 and only job is to be in the lineout and are subsequently unable to run, catch, pass or tackle.

The biggest step forward Union could take is to do away with the lineouts as then they could have mobile 2nd rowers who can actually do something in the rest of the game.
