More thoughts on play.

The scrum in the real game is now far to time consuming and detracts from the game, therefore I was thinking that maybe in the table top game it could be  improved to make the game flow more. The following photograph shows the set up I now use in my games, and is suitable for both disciplines.

The white team have the put in and therefore are covering 4 of the scrummer's exits, this gives a definate advantage to the side who have been awarded the scrum. Only 5 forwards are used therefore reducing the amount of time taken to set up the scrum.
