- NEW RULES are coming down the pipe from WORLD RUGBY, and it’s a clear attempt to ERADICATE what makes RUGBY UNION so UNIQUE.

Great video, great analysis. World rugby need to stop tinkering. Bill Beaumont needs to go. Yes there are clear things like the caterpillar ruck, the dupont law that can be stopped or changed. But I can't agree more. It won't be too long and rugby won't be rugby anymore. I hope all rugby unions and nations stand up to world rugby. Think about how many teams are now employing a ref as part of their coaching set up. Yes to maybe to get some advantage but it is also more about trying to actually understand what the heck is going on with constant law changes. It is a beautiful game, leave it alone now.
Rassie will adapt to the new laws faster than anyone else. Sorry for them!
I agree. People forget the ability of South Africans to adapt to change. ❤❤
And hell win AGAIN by ..........u guessed it...by 1 point!👊👌🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🏈🏈🏈🏈
@@craigmorgan4676I heard a birdy that Rassie has a new strategy for the Springboks. You guessed it - winning important games by 2 points!!!
Make no mistake Rassie already has the blue print to beat World Rugby at their own rules
@@craigmorgan4676 Just to prove a point!🤣
To be honest World Rugby disgust me. They are so biased. Almost to the point of being corrupt.
World rugby is easily one of the worst sports governing bodies in the world
Almost 😂😂😂
They are. Bernard Laporte managing to wangle the 2023 hosting rights off South Africa by bribing a few other nations and it only came out after raids and investigations proves that.
I also do not believe he acted purely alone.
Mmm, interesting. The real problem is that everyone other than SA are getting very annoyed with the continued scrum resets which eats up so much game time. Of course SA will see this as an action to thwart their game plan which is to bore everyone to death by continually scrummaging but let us all be honest SA have been incredibly lucky to keep winning so many close games in the last two world cups not to mention receiving more than 50% of the 50 - 50 calls. If SA are good enough they can win with the law changes. All that it will mean is that the dominant side will still retain possession but they will actually have to use their brains to create openings in more free running play as opposed to just use brawn and oversized muscle bound players who can barely keep running for more that a minute.
We do not need Rugby league thank you.
Its very easy to change the scrumming laws without modifying scrums - just go back to crouch, touch pause engage!
This RWC had some of the best matches ever so people contradict themselves saying it was boring.
Teams also complain about South Africa's bench before a single scrum has been called saying its too powerful and creates injuries all while they contradict themselves by saying they want no replacements where a hooker for example as one example of multiple positions would have to contend with Malcolm Marx for 90 mins. How is that better for injuries? If anything that would give the SA scrum and advantage because the opponents would get ground down like in the old days and have no replacements in the last 20 mins. How does that help? Does Warren Gatland think that will increase his chances against SA?
Then if its not the laws then its steroids or poisoning opponents and even not been able to hold their flag because of some Olympic paperwork that had not been filed.
The South Africans do tend to get in the firing line a lot for totally unnecessary reasons - more than often due to envy. Other teams win and nobody gives a shit about laws do they? I nearly fell asleep in 2011 final but that was no reason to go meddle with the lawbook.
Beaumont will ruin the wonderful game because he is so envious of Springbok rugby. He will do anything to weaken us. Time for this corrupt official to be booted out.
World Rugby should investigate the rampant abuse of steroids in South African rugby....This will resolve the issue....

Why are you saying South Africans are upset about the rules change i dont think do we are the current world champs and we will adapt like we always have the rest of the nations must also adapt, everytime South Africa won the world cup they change the rules and ehat happened we continued winning world cups and setting new records our blood is green and gold we shall prevail.

When we were snubbed at WC awards I thought it was mistake but these changes are out to get Springboks. Hulle weet nie wat ons weet. Champions will find a way
You were "snubbed" at the WC awards because there wasn't anyone good enough to compete with the outstanding players who recieved recognition at those awards, simple as that really.
Thanks bro.
Presies…..
@@ngabushallday6642 you are definitely correct hence the change of laws are in the cards. I wonder what is next.
@@ngabushallday6642 So, did springboks win at least best team? This is what WR needs to recognise, it's impossible to give major awards without giving some awards to the winning team.
@chimwemweg.nyirenda1969
Well it's clearly not impossible though, is it.
Ardie Savea, awarded best rugby player in the world, Richie Mo'unga recognized as the best 10 in the world even though SA squeeked a win against an All Black side down one man for 70 minutes.
If the boks are as great as some believe them to be, they wouldn't be struggling to put away any side missing a player for 70 minutes, they were out scrummed & out tackled by a 14 man All Blacks & they simply couldn't score a try.
Finally, somebody sums it up perfectly. If you want league, it already exists. What makes union different is the setpiece. You diminish that, and it ain't union anymore.
That's it exactly. Thanks for the comment.
Reading all of these comments, it seems to me that most are against many of these changes. Why can’t these changes be overturned? After all It is Rugby, not ballet!
Most of the people commenting on a triggered man's video are also triggered. Most people are stoked about these changes.
The world is trying to kill the Springboks strength points out of the game. But it will back fire on them as Karma bites back harder 😂😂😂😂

A bitter jealous guy this incarus person. Complaining about the Boks strengths as unfair to other sides. Grow some balls and toughen up your sides abilities so that you could compete better. You never hear a Springbok complain about an All Blacks strength. They'll try an better it or close in on that strength. That's the motivation you need to better your side. Not jealousy or crying unfair advantage.....what a sissy thing to complain about on this whole posts. The same wording over and over. An envious personality is no personality at all😂
Well said sir ... the proposed rule changes seem very reactive to South Africa's strengths. It's particularly odd, as they never tried to negate NZ's strengths in running the ball for the last 10 years. Wasn't that also unfair against teams with big forwards and less skilful backs (I'm being facetious)? It may be that it's because South Africa inherently has something (size and power) that most other nations do not have, nor can they simply replicate it.
Skill can be learned, but genetic qualities are impossible to copy. Seems like World Rugby are following the same line that the entire world is gripped by... if you can't beat them, cancel them.
I think you are right, "reactive" is an appropriate choice. We will see what gets introduced. I hope it doesn't dilute the character of the sport we love.
I’m a kiwi and playing South Africa is what I look forward to the most ,
The contrasting styles is what these contests the best for me , one thing I love is when the game is done , is the mutual respect between the players,
Nothing gets me on edge like playing south africa in Ellis park

It is not as if the AB’s has weak scrums!
@@user-wq4tu7zh9m Its not as if SA has weak backs either but there is a difference in focus on which half of the team does the main work which is a valid point.
It's been like this for decades.
When NZ start not wining enough, too many WCs lost in a row, they tell WR to jump and WR ask how high.
Every time. Its literally in the history books. Go look at the timing of all the biggest rules changes over the last 30+ years.

What are you on about?
Who specifically from NZ rugby has called for these law changes?
If you say "john kirwan", he's not NZR, he's just a gob on a stick that no-one actually takes any notice of.
But back to my question, name the actual NZR board member calling for these changes.
@@ngabushallday6642 Don't pay any attention to these fools... I am South African, but I hate the Springboks style of (not) playing rugby.... They cannot play Rugby therefore they have to stop those who can, from playing by employing spoiling and bullying tactics. That is also why they are all on steroids from the age of 16.... Just watch how those who get into the "system" pick up 30kg of lean muscle...something that is impossible without steroids.... Pity they have perfected the art of masking so that the steroids cannot be detected... like our friends the Russians...
@@ngabushallday6642couldn’t it be argued that your media is the mouthpiece for NZ rugby?
@ThatGuy-sw2xe
Buddy, you can argue whatever you like.
Point is, B Beaumont has said himself that these changes are to "enhance the entertainment value" of our game.
Could it be argued that with that in mind, WR is looking ahead to the potential within the American market 🤔?
After all, they will be hosting the WC in 2031
Heinrich Brassouw was a World Rugby rule change. He single handedly changed world rugby rules. He was the best open side flank and was annihilating the game. These rules are exactly the same. Attacking the Free kicks and substitutions is a direct result of the Boks strengths.
Ritchie Mc Caw says rubbish
@@joedennehy386he drilled McCaw for breakfast Joe.
@@joedennehy386 Ritchie was a great and makes my top 15. He was always tough around the breakdowns and arguably captained the best All Black and rugby Team. From a Saffa.
World rugby is becoming an embarrassment to the game, Bill , mark my words your wish to have a UK country like England , Wales or Scotland win a WC in your life time will stay a pipe dream no matter how much you change the rules to realise this . The Springboks have a sixteenth player that you cant touch no matter how much you old has beens change the rules. SA might be in your view a poor third world country but let me teach you something , We are a proud united rugby nation we will conquer what ever obstacles you old has beens put infront of us. Our Springboks have done more and inspire more than all the UK teams and the All blacks together to promote rugby among none rugby playing and so called minnow nations all over the world, not through what we say but with what we do. Uniting People's and nations through sports i believe a wise old man said that by the name of Nelson Mandela my you should readsome his writings then you will have some insight in what make us who we are when it comes to rugby. It all seems impossible until its done.
New Zealand dominated world rugby for 3 decades. Rugby is a war with a few rules. The AB's never tried to out battle any team but rather"outsmart" them.Team strategy would be not to outscrum the other team but how can we manipulate scrum(wheeling) How can we slow attacking ball down(Shaun Fitzpatrick and his apprentice Richie McCaw).Obstruction in line outs etc.Then when they have all those facets in place. They run the ball.
The next thing world rugby will introduce to the game is the wearing of ballet tutu's by players.
Love this comment!!😂
Shhh, don't give them ideas.
Nothing, no rule changes or restrictions, can stop the Springboks winning the next RWC in 2027, and making it three World Cup victories in a row!!! So BRING IT ON!!!! 🏉🏉🏉
No one is stopping the other nations to implement the same tactics South Africa use. Yes it’s a gamble having the forward packs on the bench and one back etc. but it’s working right now.
Yes, agreed. Adds another tactical dimension to the game.
No jackal = League. Rugby Union is based on fair contest for the ball.
Not quite true, jackling only became prominent when they outlawed rucking.
@@coatknightHe was talking about the contest at the breakdown. Being able to compete for the ball, the opposition having to fight for the ball. Instead of guaranteed possession.

You think everyone is trying to stop South Africa! Actually it's about trying to make the game more appealing so TV money comes to the sport. I love rugby but honestly there have been so many dreadful games. My biggest concern is there is no encouragement to make a line break because if isolated they give away a turnover in seconds.
I would agree they are trying to speed up the game and make it more exciting. However, I don't want them to water down aspects of the game that make it unique and that many, many fans enjoy.
Thank you Rugby Merlin for objective and informative comment on the recent changes to the rules/laws of rugby.
Thank you to for the respect that you show towards the current WC champions, the Springboks, and Mr. Rassie Erasmus himself.
You're welcome and thank you for the comment.
The rolling maul. Basically preventing a player from tackling the ball carrier by being obstructed. Obstructing a player from passing the ball is a penalty offense. In a rolling maul the ball carrier should be in front of the maul.
i have seen how rugby has changed. the boks has dominated this part by adapting and not dying. the rest is following our brand of rugby.scrumming,kicking most of our ways they are adopting . so like the saying goes if u cant beat them join them. and that what the world has done. look what happend to the ALLBLACKS WHEN THE BOKS LEFT THE RUGBY CHAMPIONSHIP, THE SUPER RUGBY. THEIR STANDARD DROPPED. NOW WE IN THE NORTH AND THE NORTH ARE PLAYING A GREAT BRAND OF RUGBY
BECAUSE WE BROUGHT THE STANDARD OF RUGBY UP.PERIOD.
Really??? They were gifted the World Cup by over zealous TMO guy.They still only won by single point.
In horse racing they have handicap events.We should call that final the Rugby 14 handicap.
14 Vs 15 is not fair contest at all.Lol you guys should of won by 20 points playing against 14 players.
It is total bs on you guys been the greatest.We don’t know who is best until 15 plays 15.

Good to see your channel is getting a good bit of traction. Subscribers going up and loads of comments. Keep up the good work 👍
Cheers and thanks for the support.
A certain kiwi pundit called a Sir , would love less impact scrums , for more of an " entertainment " spin , theres a game already in existence , its called Rugby League.
I know of whom you speak. He's a big fan of that code. Yet RL doesn't have anywhere near the popularity of Rugby Union globally.
With regards to the no scrum after the free kick, we will get the free kick, tap, play and get over the advantage line, make a forward pass, scrum again, and get the penalty anyway. then we bring on the 8-0 bomb squad and Matt Williams will cry for 6 months.
😂 Nice
😂😂😂😂😂
An excellent summation of current rules issues.
Thank you.
They Don’t Know What We Know In South Africa 🇿🇦 New Rules Will Not Hurt US 2027 Three in a ROW
Why not just give england and france a world cup for free
Rassie already has an ace up his sleeve, 😅These changes have been ongoing since the Boks return to world rugby. GO THE SPRINGBOKS 👊
Great feedback & analysis!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching.
Rassie and his coaching team will solve these new puzzles before anyone else,South Africa are the pioneers and other teams still need to catch up.
For me this just further proves that the IRB do fix games against us with the dodgy calls. They are just being open about it now!! But we'll still smash em!! ✌🏿💚💛🇿🇦
Of course the changes are meant to hurt us.
But don't worry - we will adapt and come back even stronger!
Lineout & Scrum is key to the game, ensures a game for all sizes. NZ is a menace bleater nation, their ex-coaches are perpetual underminers and dark arts lobbyists, we have no rule changes after NZ, RWC wins, but loads after BOK wins.
Rassie also developed utility players across the banks who could cover most positions, including in NH internationals playing Willemse in 3 different places, giving place kicking to 9's like Faf & Kolbe, not all worked but he developed breadth of position in each back, so he could rotate forwards, actually less tirednesss of forwards leads to less injury, proven scientifically.
This last RWC was one of the most entertaining very little needed fixing. Respect to you for noticing.
So Karen, who said lineouts & scrums were being taken out of the game?
I can remember when a certain Heinrich Brussow burst on to the scene ,in one year he made the Brittish and Irish lions the All Blacks and the Aussies his bitches, and lo and behold the next year the daylight rule was made....typical
Great player. He had some epic battles with McCaw, (most of which he won).
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
🇿🇦🇿🇦 LOL its OK. Rassie and the boys will adapt. The Boks will find a way to make them bring out THE BEST of us.
Will they allow that a penalty kick to post be allowed to be placed 5 yards closer to the posts, considering that penalty kickers overrun the penalty mark by 5 yards?
As a fan I see the biggest problem around subs etc is certain teams have a player down before every set piece. It's pretending injuries that slow the game, time goes off, team gets a breather. Opposition can't keep the tempo of the game. This greatly benefits teams with massive forward packs whom can't keep up anarobicly. Of course these forwards are needed for the set piece.
How can you fix it. Perhaps if you're forward goes down the set piece is played on uncontested. This will force those players to stay involved, or go to the bench and be subbed off. Speed up the game. Allow teams to keep the tempo up.
When you speak of the jackler, they are the only way for defence to turn over ball under current rule application. I say application because a large section of the laws around rucks are only being applied to defensive teams. Offence can enter from around the ruck hitting the hips of a defensive cleaner, dive over the top of the ruck with no intent to stay on feet. Go straight onto their knees and or hands ( not supporting bodyweight/ remaining on feet. Tackle the tackler and take the players off their feet then hold the tackler under them without rolling away. The offensive team gets panelized for these offences at about 1 in 75 offences. The only way to eliminate the jackler is to applied the laws of the game to both teams.
Good summation in your video. We live in strange times where world rugby can do this and we the public have little to no control to stay or do anything. I have thought world rugby is corrupt for the last decade already. They simply have too much power. We need a much wider panel that is represented by all unions to make law change decisions. I would urge that world rugby implements said rule changes and has no control over what they are. These days they keep changing the rules and they further appear to have ‘partner’ countries where they test everything (go and look at what country is trialling all the new rules). It’s all off and it is destroying the game.
I agree that it is usually NZ (and sometimes Australia) who try and change the rules to reduce the impact of elements of the game that they are not strong at. Twenty plus years ago they did the same for mauling as the North and SA were good at this and they were not. That idiot Kirwan gives the game away when he shouts out that he wants to get rid of scrums. Do support the potential TMO and kick changes though. One last thing, bring back rucking!
True!
World Rugby have been changing the rules for years. It's not about South Africa, it's about Southern Hemisphere domination of World Cup Rugby. And every time they've changed the rules, southern hemisphere teams just adapt faster than any northern hemisphere team.
Good point.
Vote with your TV remote... Switch it off!
Get rid of those Old Farts at World Rugby. They are so behind the times, get modern.
And end up softer than soccer players
With Razor as the New ABs coach, lets see what happens aye, especially the way NZ team's/union's,are turning out young new player's,so hold your horse's
the countdown will further slow down thne game if they blow it up continulosuly ?
No matter what World Rugby brings Rassie and Boks will adapt and carry on like we always do....be 1 step ahead of the circus called World Rugby. But this will effect allot of teams not just the Boks , Ireland, NZ , France and England will .
Sport has always been about aiming to be the best and that is why records, titles and so forth are made. Now it seems the way forward is to lower the bar so that we drag the leaders/achievers down instead of improving in order to reach their level.
Yes, that does seem to be their approach.
I've got an idea - lets make the game safer and at the same time put every country in the same situation. We'll play the game on-line! Because the springboks adapt better/faster, does that mean they should be penalised? The changes are just more WRC Madness.
No one was complaining when the ABs won in 2011 and 2015 then they changed the rules and laws to try and stem AB dominance
What I don't understand is if they are concerned with player safety & with the now well known issues associated with head knocks/concussion/HIA, why haven't they mandated head gear. I understand that padded head gear 'supposedly' doesn't provide this protection, but it would save some the injuries to eras etc.
And if it doesn't provide at least a small level of concussion protection then why do we have impact absorption zones in vehicles, as the full deceleration on impact still existing?
How can any coach say that the way Rassie coach puts them at a disadvantage. That is BS. It is not Rassies fault that he is so good in what he does. The other coaches don't think outside the box. Rassie don't see a box. These rules are absolutely to cripple the boks but I can tell you now rassie have already found away to use these new rules to the boks advantage. We have a world class ref that is part of the team and he is a lawyer so with the coaching staff and Jaco they already have found ways to use it to their advantage
the rules are to force all nations to play one brand of rugby, this kills variety, will eventually kill the game
The few, spoiling it, for the many!!
There was another option much simpler but also more virtuous and respectful of the Spirit of the sport: ask the referees to stop letting the SA play permanently to the limits of the rules, where often these limits are crossed with a doubtful permissiveness, questioning.
Moreover if WR has remorse, why do they not show ALL the videos, from all angles, slowed down, etc of the actions where the SA have benefited from arbitration clemences?
Repeatedly the videos allowed by WR (yes they have all the rights on the images), do not show on very little slowed down from all angles, while some actions are subject to controversy. The best thing is to lift the doubts, right?
Good review. World Rugby is giving in to where the money is coming from, and it not focused on growing the game. Good to look at player safety, but don't become ridiculous
Don't get too excited : winning by one point isn't "dominance". Rules are the same for all : everyone needs to give their best at the game.
World Rugby want a Northern hemisphere team to win the RWC and thus are curtailing any advantage they deem the Boks have over other teams, in my opinion. The actual problem is that they don't like Rassie Erasmus's innovative thinking and how he comes up with solutions to perceived problems/weaknesses/challenges his would encounter. People forget that the All Blacks used to do similar actions under previous coaches and that is what made them so good! Great analysis!
The new rules are about making the game more exciting to watch and play - more game time with ball actually in play, more flow to the game, more pressure and tension. In the bad ol days when I played, no one took a water drinks during a match ( it takes water more than 45 minutes to be absorbed in the system, so hydration needs to be done before the game anyway), both forward packs organised their own scrums in a fraction of the time it now takes, but I must be honest, there were always the same unfit loafers who were slowing down the game any chance they could - mind you we all played a full 80 minutes unless we broke an arm or leg.
If you can't beat us move the goalposts😅
Also If u take the top 5 teams in the World Cup - SA had to play 5 of them Ireland and NZ only played 3 The rest only played 1 or 2 WR made it extra tough for the Boks to get rid of them…But they survived ...and now the rules Change targeting them again WTF!! Take away the HAKA to speed up the game and to make it fair to all
I say bring it (SAFFA), we've gone through plenty of changes in the past, and we are known to adapt, it's what has made the country and the team so strong. We take on what life throws at us. Rassie will probably exploit a simple step that has been missed in the rule book.
Nice analysis. The World Cup management needs to be replaced and the new one should not have as much power to change things without consulting the unions!
Cheers. Yes, that makes perfect sense.
World Rugby moving in the same direction as FIFA, the Olympics, Westmonster, Brussels, Washington, Davos, etc! Definitely biased against the Boks. Is there a Kiwi influence in there somewhere?
So Union is becoming a weak contact league game!?!
As an Australian rugby league fan I enjoyed the 2023 World Cup, why is there no SAFFER league team? Exciting but scary thought, the kiwis are starting warming to rugby league. If you guys join more African teams will join. To be further debated around the “BRAAI”.
I would like to know who decides these changes? the IRB means nothing to me, who is the decision-making group made up of? Are all nations fairly represented? or is it still only an Anglo-Saxon soup? is by vote or someone decides in the end after discussions?...in short, I would like some clarification on this because frankly it is very obscure!
Well said. They seem to keep it intentionally unclear.
Maybe world rugby should introduce a handicap system as in golf...weaker teams to get a head start of say 15 to 20 points?
In that case, WR would give the Boks a minus 15 point handicap regardless of who they play, even the All Blacks 😋🤣
And to all of you non Springbok fans, to all of you supporters of other rugby nations, based on the recent events of World Rugby, you know what I'm saying is true.
Didn’t they do this before to England when they had Ackford, Dooley et al?
The rule changes are exciting in a way because in South Africa we have freaks of nature in every shape and form. The new rules will just create new super stars in SA. We have a huge player pool to choose from.
And we will be winning again go Bokke
And more -over the next will be forward pass I'd Okay
They were lucky to win the last one. Dominance is not the word.who cares.
These so called rule changes and apparent motive to reel in the 'advantages' and 'dominance' of say South Africa, specifically the scrums and the bench issues are just plain ridiculous. It's almost as if they are insinuating ONLY South Africa were 'allowed' to have a huge scrum game and site more forwards on the bench ready to come on and re-inforce. ANY team COULD have ran the same tactics during the World Cup for instance, but S.A. just so happened to play a master tactic game. Watching the Chasing The Sun 2 Documentary over the last few weeks has taught us...this was no fluke from Rassie, Jacques and the rest of the coaches....planning was 24/7 for those games, stategic meetings, analysis and chances taken on match day decisions...... the same every team did I imagine...only South Africa took more risks as far as I can see. World Rugby need to be careful. Key figures there need retiring..for a second time. They're no help to the game.
Referees should be able to distinguish between a dangerous high tackle and an infringement where a playour has been touched on the shoulder. How is it possible for a lock to tackle a scrumhalf other than the lock placing his knees on the ground.
See SA getting around the latest changes 🤣🤣🤣
World rugby will ban the tackle soon as it will be seen to be causing too many injuries !
Will we be on wrestling the ball out of their hands
Why don't we just play touch
Beaumont and co are doing what they can to help the Northern Hemisphere teams. They implemented laws to slow the game and therefore help Northern Hemisphere teams more competitive with the All Blacks and now it's South Africa's turn to feel the wrath of the North.
I don't know it kinda seems to me they are doing everything they can to promote SA like bringing them into every comp they can
I think a lot of them joining the European league was based on disagreements with nz cash wise, also the time zone is pretty similar. I think there needs to be more unity in purpose generally.
World rugby always hated South Africa and do their best to minimise their dominance!
Get ready for big scores. 67 - 52. Wow ......that was a brilliant match.
Great views - the ivory tower is an embittered and autocratic group of old men who have lost touch with the very sport they are to protect, enhance and spread. I echo your views on the changes and proposed changes...great comments - thank you
Well said! Thank you.
SA will be the 1st nation to adapt then we become the best b4 any nation we bit them ,we win world cup again .they change rules we do the same .remember we have Rassie Salut South Africa
Careful what they wish for because they might just get it. They want to make the game more faster & less physical. Well then Rassie will unleash the extreme depth of fast skill full players chomping at the bit to run teams rugged.
Let them do what they want. Our focus is shifting the backline. Our pack will still “fuck them up”
Sorry bro no swearing. Otherwise, it will be a bloodbath.
Come tomorrow the northern hemisphere teams will make new changes on how tall, big and sizes must be for players since the Springboks have the upper hand in this area and that's why they want to do away with the set peace's they can't take punishment upfront
@@RugbyMerlin - can’t we quote Rassie?
@@KallievanderMerwe-yg2re - then we bring on a short front row. Oh wait! Ox?
You can't beat a good sportsman no matter the laws.💪💚💪BOKKE!
Good to change water carriers rules no water carriers ever
"Meant to halt South Africa's W/C dominance"? OF COURSE!!
Rugby is no longer a sport, it's a business and the businessmen want to dictate where the W/C resides!
Who do you think they would like to see as World Champions, to better serve their business interests?
Sounds like they targeting South Africa 🇿🇦
Fair comments boyo
Cheers butty
If you don’t like scrums and set pieces, there is indeed league, but also rugby Union sevens, where scrums and line outs do not play a significant role. You are exactly right, the set pieces make Rugby Union 15s unique and multifaceted, truly a game of a variety of skills and for people of (almost) all shapes and sizes.
Well put. Thanks for the comment.
No more sit downs. South Africas best tactic ever. Big fat guys sitting down when tired. Genius there is place for me in south african rugby. I am very good at sitting down. Big fat guys get fit learn to run for 80 minutes
Keith Wood the brawler, the slowest man in the Irish team wants rugby rule changes. He wants an open,flowing,running style rugby.😮
Yes, saw that. He's a big fan though 🇿🇦
Yes yes, saw that. He's a big fan you know 🇿🇦
Do agree.
World Rugby can change the rules to what end?No scrum, no line out,no tackle above the waist. This is a game for real men. No one likes to see their team lose.The solution is getting the right people to coach your team.
Well said.
I wish I could like this video twice😃
Ha cheers!
Good to change the law about replacements
In the scrum situation instead of free kick give a full penalty which would mean the line out to the team given the penalty, I would never allow the 20 minute red card ever...it encourages coached thuggery, if you know you will get a full red card....one thing I think it would be more in line to crack down on is illegal doping that is going on and is being covered up...the sport is getting like athletics and cycling....and don't anyone say there is no doping...
I swear the springboks are to world rugby what Man city is to the PL. World rugby is run by certain nations, like the PL is run by Liverpool, Arsenal, Man utd, Spurs.
That's an interesting analogy. I hadn't thought of it like that. Cheers.
