Red ball carrier tackled by Blue. Ball is placed back and Red support player arrives and crouches over the ball.
Blue player arrives, grasps the Red player over the ball and pulls him forward so that the ball is now in the clear behind the Red player.
1. When the Blue player grasps the Red player with just his hands does this constitute binding and has a ruck formed?
2. Is it fair play to pull an opponent forward out of a ruck?
3. If the Red player, pulled forward, goes to ground is that collapsing the ruck?
4. Has the ruck ended when the ball is clear of the hind foot even though the ball didn't move?
