5m scrum should be replaced by 5m line-out (the touch-line from which line-out is taken can be chosen by the team which have the ball).
What do you think?

This is the logic: sigesige00 doesn't like scrums.

This is actually the best one yet. There is literally no possible advantage in this proposal whatsoever. Usually I can at least understand Sige's twisted logic, but this is bizarre. Replace one set piece with another set piece. Why? Lol, why not?
I love it and am in total agreement.
Actually, there is
At a five metre scrum both the attacking team and the defending team have to have their backs 5m back, however, at a 5m line-out, the defending team only have to have their backs 5m back, while the attacking team have to have their backs 10m back.
A 5m line-out is therefore, technically more advantageous to the defending team than a 5m scrum.
yes. true... But according to my Rugby Knowledge... and excuse me if I'm totally wrong... But isn't a lineout only awarded when a kick out of touch is made???
scrums are used to reset the gameplay for a mistake made in play, ie. knock-on, forward pass, touchdown in own goal line, kick made over the dead ball line(22 drop out) etc.
changing a scrum to a lineout is changing the core of rugby union!
If so, then how about 5m FK?
