[QUOTE="j'nuh, post: 462588, member: 55446"] Simple solution to scrum put-ins: the ball must be thrown down the middle channel, but can go anywhere in the middle channel. That way, it doesn't get thrown directly to the 8 (which makes scrums pointless), but there is an advantage to being the team putting the ball into the scrum. While we're at it, a ref on each side of the scrum is needed. An assistant ref (whichever is closest) can come in and stand opposite to the ref. It's better than the refs continuously switching sides depending on which side the mischief is happening on. Each ref checks the binding on their respective sides, and whilst the main ref checks what's happening in the contact area in the scrum, the assistant ref can police the put-in. [/QUOTE]
