I'd turn the clock off until the ball's in for a start. Pretty sure that would cut back on the fannying around. Oh, and start to call crooked feeds too.

Similar to rucks though, reffing them isn't an exact science. There'll always be an element of interpretation except in the most obvious cases.There's maybe an argument to be made for another ref on the opposite side of the scrum or the TMO keeping a closer look out for a prop slipping his bind or refusing to take a square hit.

Think an extra ref will just result in a shot at goal for both teams from halfway in a 79th minute tbh - and I think it may be the fairest way.

Perhaps we outlaw scrums for the last 10 mins so it's only tap n go, or a lineout restart in line with the knock on. Removes the crapshoot 50/50 chance and threats from whichever team were stiffed. Plus the wallabies scrum is ****, so it'll help us. Maybe.

Further info on the 2027 tournament, will be 6 groups of 4 and a last 16 knockout round. Would suggest that being one of the top 6 ranked nations in a year's time would probably be of some benefit and help avoid a potentially tougher last 16 clash.

Ireland might win a knock out match then?

Wouldn’t want them in any tough matches before the semis

Is Freddie steward signing for a French team meaning he can't play for England?

Think it’s Marchant who has signed and yes it does cause complications. At present he can’t play 6 Nations, it may change (it should given the issues our club game is in).

Given he made literally no impact against Argentina I don't know how much of an issue that is
