@JudgeRugby Can't argue!

7 - Marcell Coetzee won seven turnovers in just 55 minutes for @UlsterRugby against Connacht, the joint most recorded by Opta in a @PRO14Official match (level with James Davies v Edinburgh in March 2015). Nuisance.

Ruck after ruck happens like this in the modern game. Take hands out the ruck. Enforce the sequence tackler release. Tackled player release. Players off their feet are not part of the ruck.

@JudgeRugby Seem to be less guys on Japan. Maybe a number of guys have opted to have a longer break and preseason after the CC.
