[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1067904, member: 74121"] Yeah, just had visions of back rowers bossing the breakdown with superior grip, one handed offloads and less knock-ons. But if it would impair passing then that is a bit of a non starter given the way the modern game is played. The NFL use different gloves for Quarterbacks, ones that presumably don't bring the other benefits I was expecting. Given we've seen microscopic improvements in running shoes, swim suits, tennis racquets etc I'm just surprised there hasn't been more obvious experimentation in rugby. Even if it was failed experimentation. [/QUOTE]
