[QUOTE="Sea fossil, post: 1011981, member: 84392"] Not only has the scrum become tedious, but it is dangerous - and the International Rugby Board knows it. Paying customers are rightly registering their disapproval and asking where the value for money is in watching the game. The above is a quote from Brian Moore in 2013. Since 1960 the scrum rules have been changed or adjusted more than any other part of the game, mainly in the interest of safety. I am neither qualified or in a position to advise the Unions on how to run the game. However the more times the scrum is reset increases the risk factor, and you dont need to be a genius to see that. I understand that it is difficult for the Ref's to oversee the whole scrummaging action but they have been given guidelines for keeping the game flowing - in all parts of the game. More simply put ease up on the whistle. [/QUOTE]
