Now that the season is well under way is presumably pos- sible! to give some kind of an opinion as to the working of the newly-worded scrummage laws writes a Home correspondent.
First of all, from close personal observation and from Inquirie among those most immediately concerned, it is apparent that the whole law, as it now stands, is a great improvement upon the in- tricate and elaborate affair of last season, and. In the matches which I have 30 for seen. there has been far less whistling and messing about when the two opposing

On two of these occasions A 10.48 were in a definite attacking post- tion, and it occurred to me that 11.32 they would much rather have car- ried on in possession than have been given the somewhat doubtful privilege of trying to steer a lively and erratic ball over the crossbar from a fairly wide angle.
I am fully aware of the wording of the footnote to Law 10. "The functions of the referee," which finishes by saying, "An opportunity of gaining an advantage is not sufficient." but, I venture to suggest that the act of ball possession is the advantage gained.
