Important World Rugby Directives

The following World Rugby Directives will be implemented from this weekend’s Round 12 matches in the Greene King IPA Championship.

a) Scrum half dummying at the breakdown – Free Kick

b) Also, at the breakdown, the referee to call “use it” once the ball is available with a view to getting the ball back in play quicker. Once “use it” has been called the scrum half will have up to five seconds to play it away and if not there will be a scrum awarded to the opposition.
