[QUOTE="Wander, post: 536751, member: 64166"] OK, for all those who are obviously far brighter, more enlightened and articulate than me.......rather than basic sledging (easy, dull, get over it!).......how about using your superior whit, knowledge of the game and writing skills to explain, in a detailed sentence if possible, why a simple knock on at a ruck, picked up by the same player, not passed forward, is worth stopping the game for? Rather than having a scrum, which will inevitably need to be reset 3 times and could lead to a penalty all for.....a one inch knock on, let it go! I also agree with the posts above that a line THAT ISN'T CONTESTED doesn't need to be penalised. If the defending team can't be bothered to compete, what possible difference does it being straight make? Easy to referee, speeds up play, gets my vote. [/QUOTE]
