This shot clock will be incredibly controversial. Any coach who doesn’t consider incorporating some spoiling tactics into the scrum 35 seconds stoppage would be very naive. I just read the following.
On a scrum both teams will have 35 seconds to form a scrum. If one team fails to set properly or a player fails to set properly then referee at his discretion can award penalty to either team he deems. (The team who lost it could be given it back instantly given some smart
Spoiling in the scrum).
So a team can knock on and your telling me your not going to niggle and make it as awkward as possible to get ball back from a penalty. I can see this being very controversial in some games. “At refs discretion” at a scrum is going to be difficult and puts the ref in a no win situation with the fans.
Not sure about this one at all.
Agreed. A fine idea in principal but, the reality is that, once again, "we" haven't fully thought this one through
