Formação Ordenada está na ordem do dia
Costumamos dizer que os bons árbitros distinguem-se no breakdown, no entanto a arbitragem da mellée tem-se revelado crucial no desenrolar do jogo e na avaliação do árbitro.
Na mellée o árbitro é avaliado mais processo do que pelo resultado, a razão é simples: tem de seguir directrizes muito rígidas por questões de segurança. Isto não invalida que cada vez mais tenhamos de ser claros e coerentes na arbitragem da mellée.
WHY ARE THERE SO MANY COLLAPSES AND RESETS?
Kingsley Jones (former Wales flanker, current head coach at Sale): The scrum is now won and lost on the engagement. Coaches are coaching front-rows to win the race across the gap on the call to 'engage' and introduce the ball immediately. We've got big players who, if they lose the 'hit', look to the safety of the ground. We're not coaching that, but props want to look after themselves.
When someone loses the race, they go down and the scrum is reset. The next scrum, they don't want to lose the race, so they go early, which results in a free-kick because they jumped the call. Or if I'm an attacking scrum-half, my team hit and lose the engagement, I might say, "I can't put it in ref", because if I put the ball in and my team are going backwards, my coach will tell me what's what after the game.
Graham Rowntree (former England and Lions prop, current England scrum coach): I know why the 'pause' stage was brought in, it settles everything. Before you had 'crouch-touch-engage', sometimes very quickly, and you had teams rolling into each other and there were too many forces and too much weight involved and you were getting injuries.
But there are timing issues. The whole sequence - 'crouch-touch-pause-engage' - can be delivered by different referees at different speeds, especially if both front rows have not followed through the sequence in time.
And while that's happening you've got some front rows who are bent and over-balanced and you can physically see them shaking because they're holding up all that weight. And when they meet each other and somebody is off-balance, or the ground conditions aren't very good, that scrum will go down.
