I can't say I've seen this one called much, so never put much thought to it before. But what does "the last team moving forward" actually mean at a ruck for example?An unplayable tackle or ruck...The team last moving forward. If neither team was moving forward, the attacking team.
Is it the last team to advance the ball forward before the ruck began?
Or does it mean the team who last was moving forward via driving through the ruck itself?
Or is it the last team literally who advanced forward (regardless of who was in possession of the ball) before the ruck began?...if it's this one, would that mean a turnover ball could happen? E.g. a defending team that continued to cause the attacking team to move backwards before the ruck established would then get the put in at the scrum?
