    It does beg the question - how much of the Foxsports decline is due to Foxsports?

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    The 3+ try bonus point system has coincided with the cratering in support across the competition. Now correlation doesn't equal causation but it's worth a think

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Those viewing figures posted above really do show why RA is so reluctant to leave Super Rugby though, for all the flaws in that stance. 50m viewers for the year, of which we contributed around 5m 10% of the viewers and we get 1/3 of the money (approx obviously). It's a great deal for us -...

    I have about 358,000 total crowd for 2017 but missing 7 games (mainly rebels and a couple of force). Is there a total for Aus teams in that article? Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk

    See Working Class Rugger's post in that thread Average Tv audience for Oz games is up 10% for the figures I have ( which is pretty much all of them). Apples for apples with last year's games on average - but cumulatively down based on less games I don't bother with average crowd figures...

    I'm half joking, but I know a number of Tahs fans who were at Disney on ice as well. Not an engagement you can miss Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk

    I suspect Dan54 is referencing a planetrugby thread, which in turn pulls figures from our very own 2018 TV and crowd numbers thread. http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/threads/2018-tv-ratings-and-crowd-numbers.18159/page-35#post-1021599 So head there (note these are based off a...

    Refereeing decisions

    U19 variation for Dangerous play Scrum law 38 Other restricted practices at a scrum include: Keeping the ball in the scrum once it is heeled and controlled at the base of the scrum. Sanction: Free-kick.

    Refereeing decisions

    Why would you want to take this out of the game? Edit Seriously though, I am on record as saying that scrum collapses/penalties causing delays are the single biggest issue facing the game in this country - but it's a law of the game issues, not a referee issue, and there is no desire up north...

    Refereeing decisions

    Which team wouldn't immediately collapse every scrum once the ball was at the back? Just put the U19 variations in if you want to change it. (Can't push more than 1.5m, have to use it as soon as it's controlled at the back.) Same result, without more dangerous collapses NB neither your...

    Play has restarted once the ball is fed into the scrum, not once it leaves the scrum. Ie the scrum is "play" Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk

    Refereeing decisions

    It's shit I agree, but well supported by the laws. Unlike the U19 variations there's no maximum distance you can push in the full laws or requirement to move the ball on once it's controlled at the back (as long as the scrum is moving) Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk

    Refereeing decisions

    Because, under the laws of the game, the scrum isn't over until the ball is out, and inevitably, if you get pushed back 5m someone has dropped a bind or isn't pushing straight and parallel. Under the laws, if you have a dominant scrum you should be entitled to push the opposition back 80m and...
