[QUOTE="Larksea, post: 820444, member: 43875"] Am I the only person who likes these new laws? I think they need a bit of work but I think they have generally had a positive impact on the game. was funny watching the Waikato vs, wellington game the other day. The commentary were complaining about the laws then a short time later they were talking about how much more actual play the game has and how great it was that teams are stringing together long phases of play and getting faster ball. They were basically saying, " wow I hate these new laws and can't wait till they are scrapped... Gee this is a great game, its amazing how much open play, long phases of play and fast ball we have seen in the competition lately... I wonder why?..." Hmmm.... The breakdown in Rugby has become a real mess, its gotten to the stage where almost every ruck you could penalize either side depending on how/what rules or area you focus on. Its seems much cleaner now, if you want to win the ball you have to stay on your feet and drive over it. I'd love to see the stats broken down comparing hast years games to this year. Time in play and phases, trys/points scored etc. Even things like the number of injuries in the game. Get an overall picture of whats happening. [/QUOTE]
