[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 658577, member: 40658"] I think the amount of injuries from front rowers in the last few years has been evident that it's definitely a step in the right direction. I know that Frik Kirsten was yesterday told by his medical doctor that he has to retire from rugby as the possibility of his neck being healed after his surgery might not be as successful as they had hoped and that he could become paralysed. As for the scrum setup itself, I personally love the new format, it has made the scrumming area a contest again, and we have seen some great plays caused from a tighthead. It has also brought back the art of hooking, which is what the Hooker is supposed to do. [/QUOTE]
