Hi All,
I was lucky enough to be at Twickenham on Saturday for the opening double header.
The ref' in the first game called 'ruck' once.
In the second game, Mr Richards called it several times (maybe more the reflink went down for a while) and each time called 'hands away'.
From my lofty M23 R70 eirie I couldn't tell if he was calling 'hands away' as both player (or all at the breakdown) were off their feet.
Any suggestions as to why he did this ?
What should we be calling immediately after the tackle and either the tackler has gotten to his feet or other players are arriving ? There appears to be no consensus yet.
Thanks,
Dave (newbie ref').
