[QUOTE="dasNdanger, post: 616697, member: 61962"] (Did a search and didn't find this, sorry if it's already been discussed) So I'm watching today and I see the refs - instead of saying out loud when to put the ball into the scrum - they're doing some sort of weird signal. I looked it up and found this: I get the 'element of surprise' aspect, but isn't it a bit hard in some cases to watch the ref AND the pack at the same time? It seems to me that this would delay the game more than the oral call, and I'm not quite sure how this would work since neither side would be alerted (and thereby prepared) for the put in. Thoughts? das [/QUOTE]
