yes - IMO it's a form of obstruction as they have no "intent" to compete for the ball and they are preventing the other team from competing for the ball. It's a game based on competiton. What option does the chasing team have? They can't push them or tackle them. It's completely unfair to the...

They players know what they are doing is blocking. Otherwise they would run back behind the player to be able to support the next phase. The game / referees could get rid of this with a couple of penalties. If players were penalised as part of a 4 man wall, they wouldn't complain. They would...

I believe the line out is over and it is an illegal flying wedge. At least that is my opinion on how it should be interpreted. World Rugby have been far too generous on pre-binding in the lead up to a tackle.

Is his brother still the coach?

Grammar 57 High 0. Full Time

Grammar 26 High 0 Half Time

Yes, schoolboy suspensions are generally very light. It won't even surprise me if both boys play this weekend.

I will be very surprised if they are suspended for the final 2 games of their schoolboy career.

Yes but the Schools "Judiciary" have a reputation of handing out very light sanctions
