I am ****ing sick of ruck contests becoming a wrestling contest. The competition is made for the O’Briens and Nankervis types. Chris Scott
whinging about his poor rucks constantly running at their opponents with no eyes for the ball. We have a young jumping ruck, not given a chance to jump. But when Pitto emulates the contact first style, he is pinged every second contest.
It used to be a tip off with physicality, now it is a grappling contest. Many rucks wrap arms around opponents and get away with it time after time. Often when “less skilled” rucks return serve, they are pinged with some mysteriously nuanced decision prohibiting them from doing the same.
