With reference to France vs Wales; Francis, Wales, returned to the FR in 80 + Mins and the fullback went off so that contested scrums could continue following the Yellow Card to Samson Lee. This I understand was Francis had been substituted tactically, not replaced injured.
So what if Francis had been replaced injured and there were no remaining FR-trained players on the bench or on the field. Would that mean that the 'binned' player, Samson Lee, would return? Or do we at that point give up and go uncontested?
Also does it imply that the 4th official needs to keep records at the point of substitution of a FR player in case such a situation arises later on in the game .. ? It seemed a bit week on Saturday that the question had to be asked - apparently - for the first time when the 80+minute incident occurred.
