Quote: Morning Glory "By no means a ru follower but caught the last 10 mins of the eng v wales game on Saturday.
Could someone with more knowledge of the ru game explain why eng chose to throw to the front of the line-out and not the middle or back? Is this the norm with lineouts close to the line or simply really poor choice of throw/decision taking by the hooker/captain that gifted the game to the welsh who piled in and pushed eng the 2 yards into touch?
Or am I missing something?'"
Throwing to the front is usually the easiest way to secure the ball agsinst a competing jumper.
However at the lineout Wales setup In a way that meant they weren't going to compete in the air and we're going to counter maul as soon as they could.
At that point, the lineout call should have been changed to go to the back.
