The below-quoted text can be found on the SA Refs Duty Ref Area.
One for the designated members, perhaps? The above bolded text is NOT how I would expect it to be refereed, so I'm wondering if this is in fact a new application of law, or whether I'm simply old hat.
KML, this could be your vindication!

Question: Hi there, I was wondering what the official interpretation is when a scrum turnover happens after the 80 minutes are up? I've seen it ruled two different ways this season in the Super 15. (Highlanders vs Crusaders and Force vs Waratahs if I remember correctly).
Cheers
Stu Berry: Hi Jack. It’s an interesting one, and you are spot on. A scrum that collapses and gets reset is the same scrum, and so is incomplete. A scrum that is a turnover through 90 degrees is a new scrum, and so time needs to be called once the turnover has been completed.
