thats the one

Yer, i liked that.... Was a good read!! Was only about £1 IIRC

The only thing I would change about scrums is that the players who form the scrum when they are trying to stop the clock have to stay in the scrum.

agree 100%, if you "form" the scrum then you bloody well FORM the subsequent scrum!

Quite right.

I loved scrummaging myself and in some respects think it is one of the aspects of the game that I miss. However given that one team has transgressed/made a mistake is it fair that the non offending team (as it were) still have to battle for possession of the ball?
Policing of the offside at scrums disappeared years ago and one of the reasons to keep the scrum is to tie up those numbers so there is more space for the backs to penetrate. The modern day scrum farce just doesn't allow that, the players barely pack down (because they dont have to push for one thing) the loose man is exactly that & never packs down properly..period. And before the ball even reaches the LF the defense is already level with the scrum anyway so direct attacks are snuffed out with relative ease on the first tackle. Okay so it brings into play the chip over the top or longer kick but how often do we see that?

Train up the touch judges so they know what a forward pass is (& the offside rule whilst they're at it) TJ's should call forward passes that are just that, if we have 20 in a game then so what, Leeds & Saints will soon get the idea that the TJ will inform the ref & will stop pushing the envelope past its legal limit.
Two feet behind the line when the attacking team is within 10m of the try line should mean two feet behind the line. Just a joke of a rule as it is never policed.
Shoulder barging, get rid. No skill in it, dangerous, uncontrolled, doesn't always stop the attacking player from continuing forward progression or offloading anyway. Just tackle the man properly FFS.
Clamp down on use of neck area to bring players down in the tackle.
More 8 pointers, how many times have players been fouled after a try has been scored with knees to the head/body or late challanges etc and the ref does naff all. 2 extra points under the sticks every time & it would cut down the needless afters.

I would like to see the CC brought forward to May, now that magic weekend is in Feb.

i'm sure they have to in the NRL? Id like 2 refs like they have it seems to work well imo.

Not fussed about scrums, contested ones like union are worse than our attempts. At leats ours tie up the forwards and can reward inventive set plays a la Horne kick to Tony play-offs v Bradford.

Linesmen to do more than mark kicks and flag kicks at goal. They need to be on the ball for forward passes and off-sides its almost as if they daren't flag most of the time.

I'd like to see the law change on hotels taking the p1ss when there are major events in the area....

I've just looked at an hotel in Cardiff that was;

February.
Thursday 10th - £65
Friday 11th - £185
Saturday 12th - £205
Sunday 13th - £105
Monday 14th - £65

Now that is down right out of order and should be illegal!!!

Why should it, you pay a premium for flowers at Valentines Day, you pay a fortune for Turkey at Christmas, it's all supply and demand.

Exactly in the same way that seaside guest houses charge about 3X the fee per night during the summer.

I chuffing well don't.... we've been together a while now i'll have you know!!!
