World Rugby have some immediate changes, some likely changes and some possible changes. I agree with some strongly, and similarly disagree with others...what do YOU think?

Scrummaging is at the heart of what makes rugby union, rugby union. Why not just convert to league if you donât value the scrum?

Time off on the scrum as it forms - time back on when they set - time off if they have to reset - repeat

I am an old man of 73, and played my rugby in the Royal Navy all over the world, I was of slight build but I agree, the scrum IS rugby , the ball should be fed straight and contested, Love your channel

Removal of the scrum option for a free kick leads to situations where a team is rewarded for infringing (because it means they don't have to face another scrum that they may not have enjoyed facing). Obviously that's stupid.

I love the varied strategies that can be explored and used in rugby because of all its different competitive elements. Scrums, lineouts, goal kicking, drop goals, mauls, pick and go, punting, box kicking, running rugby, 7-2 bench splits. You can build a successful team in so many different ways and focusing on strengths and avoiding your weaknesses as much as you can. Having more options to restart play when the opposing team either infringes or make a technical error is what makes the game so interesting in my mind.
I'm Irish but I love Rassie. He clearly knows how to strategise and play to his strengths. I don't want the game to devolve and become more simple in this sense. I like the complexities and different way people approach a game. League is boring, in my opinion.

I vote for Tim as new head of WR !!

World Rugby bias against South Africa clearly on display.

Players, especially props, spend their entire lives honing their skill and techniques in scrummaging. Rule changes like this makes obselete decades of strength training and thousands of hours of scrum machine practice and thus will destroy many honed careers.

in regards to the scrum, why is the ball never put in straight?
102 |
This is the best thing that could possibly happen to South Africa. I'm not kidding. The Boks are at their best when their backs are up against the wall and nothing puts their backs up against the wall quicker than a World Rugby initiative that disproportionately effects them. Rassie couldn't have drafted a better script for his team talks. His team will work on a series of on-field strategies to adapt the SA game and come 2027 the Boks will be a much changed side from the 2023 vintage. Thanks, Warren. You've outdone yourself again.

If the ball is put in straight in the scrums like the lineout you give the opposition a chance. Why straight in the line out but not on the scrum. It's just stupid. Also you may not advance if you are in front of the kicker until you are put onside. Again a simple rule and easy on the referee. In just about every kick off the players are on front of the kicker which greatly reduces the possibility of a counter attack. Simple rules make for a better game. Great show

Tim, we need more commentators like u in Rugby Union! The appreciation for scrums isn't taught to fans, it's so fundamental to the game. Rugby Union is Rugby Union. Why are we so ashamed of physicality, the collisions, the Scrums. No other sports tinkers so much with its rules as Rugby Union because we say it should be more like League.

South Africa does XYZ:
World Rugby bans XYZ in new law changes.

If they want to disallow an attacking team taking another scrum because the defending team commited an offense at the scrum and gave away a free kick, then they need to change that free kick to a full penalty. Otherwise teams that play teams like the Spingboks will delliberatelly give away a free kick at a scrum so that they dont have to scrum against the Boks.
Also the changes that brought in "crouch, touch, pause, engage" has created more problems. They need to go back to the "crouch, set, engage" method. Players know to grab onto their opposition when they are getting set. Scrums are inherently unstable untill you get that hit from the other side to settle it. Fewer pauses in getting the scrum ready will mean fewer unbalanced hits and players going to ground.

A scrum is supposed to restart the game so the clock should stop as soon as a scrum is called and start again automatically at the bind.

Sorry to hear about the scrotes burgling you and I hope they find them! Love the content and agree that the laws are designed to disrupt SA.

Sorry to hear about you being burgled, it's a very shitty feeling for your whole family.

Absolutely agree with you on the first rule re. Scrums. A team should be able to call a scrum whenever they want to wherever they want to. If teams complain then get better at scrumming bro! Once ref marks the scrum both sets of props should be at the mark in 10 seconds and then the ref can call a 15 second count for his next call of bind. If any teamâs not ready then a free kick.

Hi Tim no matter what they throw at us as South Africans on the rule changing in Rugby. I can promise you that when the next World Cup comes, we will still be the champions three four five or even six times in a row. You guys wanna know why ? We got Rassie and he is by far a Rugby genius guys do yourself a favour go watch chasing the sun and chasing the sun 2 and you will understand why i say what i say. Even if they wanna hurt us by changing the rules we will find a way to use it at our advantage and make it work for us. Go Bokke champions for life. thanks Tim for a great channel.
