Check out Dan (of this parish)’s grubber kick page
Then watch some attempts, the ball bounces in a not nearly so unpredictable way, as you might wish us to believe. First low along the ground, but as it loses momentum it tumbles on the flat ends and often «*stands up*» for the chasing winger to recover the ball at chest height. The ones where poor skill is employed are likely to be unpredictable, like the second row kicking left legged. A skilled scrum half, putting a well weighted kick in behind, not so much.
