[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 910880, member: 58362"] The principle of the point stands though. For years, the game was played with 20+ players with only 2 backs with no points gained for scoring a try. It was no doubt regarded as fine at the time, so why don't we regress to a pile of bodies rumbling up and down the field in a wrestling match? Kicking the ball out on the full was permitted for much longer, should we bring that back in? Lifting in the lineout wasn't permitted, should we bring back bean pole second rows? Where do we draw the line to avoid offending the sensibilities of those who refuse to acknowledge that the game is constantly evolving, or should we only worry about things that offend your personal sensibilities?
