Good analysis Bobbo. I agree though about the 9s putting the ball straight into the second row. I've noticed how that never gets called but I assume that it's because the ref is always on the opposite side of the scrum from the put in. A dedicated ref would help for that - or even a linesman. But they also never call the steeply angled throws at the line outs either. It would be great to see that sort of thing tidied up.
