Do folk on here still talk about contested scrums? : Thu Aug 10, 2017 12:38 pm
Having the most banal interaction about contested scrums somewhere else on the internet. Why do people cling to this? Nobody is ever going to do a clickbait article on the ten greatest scrums ever (they might do in union). Scrums are THE worst thing about rugby union. They kill the speed of the game and disrupt the action. Sure they're useful in union because it takes defenders out of the defensive line and puts them in the scrum to make their game more exciting. Our game doesn't need it. It's a step backwards and I honestly do not know why people (admittedly usually folk over 50) keep harping on about it, without invoking some insulting comment about their brains being stuck in the same time period over and over again.
