[QUOTE="Tony Manx, post: 543062, member: 50236"] Not sure what can be done about it really. With a knock on or offside, it is relatively straightforward but at breakdowns and, indeed, scrums there are inevitably so many offences being committed at once that the game would never have any rythm if everyone was penalised. I suppose the only way is for the refs to indicate clearly what they want, to be consistent and to use their yellow cards much quicker when there is persistent offences. Being old fashioned, I would not mind goimg back to allowing the scrums to fold in and do away with the hit and allow a Beaumontesq type breakdown where they grapple for it on the floor......totally agaiinst the wishes of those who like only touch or running rugby and the elimination of the forwards!!
