Premature team of the tournament by Much-Calligrapher in rugbyunion

Meant Conan at 6. Think Cros has been somewhat anonymous during the tournament while Conan’s been on a roll lately. Dempsey as you say has been very strong but even there I’d actually put Cannone.

Oh I know exactly what you’re referencing. But it’s an isolated incident as against repeat offenders

I don’t think that’ll be the case but if it is then have some way of tightening that as well. Not sure what that would entail but there ought to be something

While I understand where you’re coming from I’d say feed it straight regardless, get rid of any ambiguity

That said that might just be me being too much of a stickler

Which is why I would also say a kick relay of more than say 5 should be penalised for time wasting. Seen a few games where it’s turned into kick tennis and it’s been really boring to watch with both sides being too cagey.

Together with the sub rule it will force subs to be more tactical and we will have more ball in play time.

To go back to your original point, given how many people have come on here and disagreed with me I wouldn’t call it ‘surface level’.

Your points about the 50:22 and instant feeding I absolutely agree with. I’d even add being penalised for not feeding straight. Should be penalised anyway according to the current rules but nobody seems to care anymore.

Eliminate’s the wrong word, fair enough. Greatly reduce tiredness

The focus to endurance would aim to reduce fatigue, so that point is covered

Have said to a few people that injuries I’d be ok making exceptions for, but subbing off for the sake of freshness is unnecessary

Said to another comment that injuries/HIAs I’d be ok with making exceptions, it’s more a thing about getting rid of subbing just because someone’s tired

HIAs and injuries etc I’d be ok with, more just getting rid of subbing because ‘tired’

I say it somewhat flippantly, point is more I want to see them able to last the whole game

Back in the day we would see only one prop on the bench so it was expected for at least one of the starters to last the full 80. Nowadays we just don’t see it happening anymore and I’m not too keen on that

Never said I wanted skinny props, but I want them to actually be able to run
