They can pull the ball out if the are standing on an inside position.

AIMLESS EXTENTION OF KNOWLEDGE HOWEVER, WHICH IS WHAT I THINK YOU REALLY MEAN BY THE TERM 'CURIOSITY', IS MERELY INEFFICIENCY. I AM DESIGNED TO AVOID INEFFICIENCY.

I no longer understand it - I don't think many people do.

It was a complicated game for sure. I bet the ref was glad it was over.

yes - not a good job.

Union is starting to look more and more like League -
just gorillas bashing into each other to make a few yards of territory.

Instead of passing the ball to a back line that is far enough away
to gather considerable running speed -
they pass it to a back line that is only 2 metres away
and causes another heads on crash with the opposing team.
Where are all the super fast scissors plays that were
so much fun to watch in the 70s and 80s?
My guess that the guys are so big that they avoid any fast running
as they know they'll get injured.
