    World Rugby phased plan to grow the sport

    I thought that the red carded player stayed off all game, but they could bring a sub on after 20 minutes. Have I got that wrong?

    So when is Rassie Erasmus gong to get sanctioned for coaching on the field?

    I think you will find it is his technique.

    Penalty Try *and* penalty restart

    Interestingly I can no longer find this scenario mentioned in the laws, I am guessing it has been moved to somewhere obscure. It used to be mentioned under Foul Play.

    Penalty Try *and* penalty restart

    There will always be grey areas, I was giving a rule of thumb.

    Penalty Try *and* penalty restart

    If the offence occurs before you have blown your whistle, deal with it there and then. That would be a card for me. If the offence happens after you blow your whistle, then yes a penalty restart might be appropriate.

    Enforcing 7s scrum binding

    It's a tactic in 7s to release themselves from the scrum quicker and get back in play before the opposition. ATP.

    Juggling ball now NOT in possession

    So no change in the law, just one ref (team) seeing it slightly different from some other ref's. Amazing!

    France v Italy - potential spoiler

    I have given two retakes at penalties this season for defenders waving their arms above their heads. In both cases the kick missed and I gave a retake 10m forward. Players were perplexed; their coach wasn't and gave them a bollocking.
