refereed an U13 game today - one side tried to take a quick lineout. Luckily the ball had touched a spectator so I knew it could not be taken but it made me double-check laws.
According to IRB U19 variations, quick throw in is fine (as long as it meeets the usual requirements!) BUT according to RFU website relating to age-grade rugby, (http://www.rfu.com/TheGame/~/media/Files/2010/TheGame/Regulations/RFU Regulation 15 Appendix 2.ashx) minumum numbers in the lineout are 2!!!
Is there a minimum of 2 ONLY if there is a lineout formed - ie if the quick throw is taken before it is formed, then play on.
Also, can no8 pick up from the base of the scrum?
Can the ball be held in the scrum by no.8 to push the scrum forward the whole 1.5m?
Help?!?!?!?!
