New community rugby laws 2023

[BR]

Is there a case for dropping 2 players to create more space on the pitch to allow evasion rather than collision? Before anyone says league, if the same rules applied with rucks, lineouts and mauls then it would still be a good watch but with an greater emphasis on better cardio than strength. Reducing the number of subs allowed is the other option.

Just make collision the less attractive option.

Undo some of the changes and interpretations that were introduced in recent years.

remove:
Offside at tackle (england will just have to learn to cope with it)
Kicking out of ruck

Stop ignoring:
Most clearouts are collapsing the scrum.(do this for safety anyway)
Ball carrier release when tackled.
Roll away at tackle
9 has the ball he's fair game.
If the 9 is standing that close to the ruck, he can't complain if he becomes part of it.
Players off feet at tackle/ruck
Shoulders below hips.
