It is. in effect, a sweeping con- demnation of modern scrummage. methods, and is aimed particularly at the generally accepted practice of allotting fixed places to indivi- dual forwards. in, the tight scrum- mage.
Forward Specialization The Board has come
to the conclusion that this forward specialization lies at the root of the deterioration, in the standardi thef of play which was evident in St four home Unions last season. They have, therefore, issued a plea to 'players, referees and clubļ officials urging them in the strongest terms to abide strictly by the spirit and letter of the serummage laws, and to return. first down."" to the old principle of "First Up,
