[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 835333, member: 73592"] Scrums and ones out are restarts after a non-foul stop in play. Because there was no foul, there should be competition for the ball; but equally, there needs to be a bias gainst the team who caused the break in play. Many feel that the chances of securing possession at both scrum and line-out is a little too great, but certainly not to the point of throwing a strop about it and throwing away that 10%ish chance. The bigger problem with the scrum at the top end of the game, is that it's more used as a way of "earning" a penalty, rather than securing possession. None of the issue are easily solved [/QUOTE]
