Cheetahs ruck move vs Waratahs

[westsideAUKILANI]

they did this play yesterday against the blues to no avail...came close though...Southern hemisphere flair...

[fibbonaccisequence]

Niiicely done.

[flogatorsfan4ever]

Awesome play. Brilliantly executed

[awesomeeman]

You can't go straight to ground like that.

[blobo18]

@awesomeeman I've played rugby for 5 years now and Ive never been penalized for going to ground without being tackled. While it is not seen as good, it is not illegal.

[awesomeeman]

@blobo18

IRB Rule 16.3 (a) Players in a ruck must endevour to stay on their feet

IRB Rule 16.3 (b) A player must not intentionally fall or kneel in a ruck

[blobo18]

@awesomeeman Yes those are rules but when they did the move they weren't in a ruck so those rules didnt apply

[scorpio552]

Brilliantly worked play. top notch rugby

[stubones]

Genius... deserved a try.

[waytooolazy]

Im looking for something illegal but there isnt anything, it is simply pure genius! Well done coach!

[warrust]

there's no ruling on voluntary rucking (forming a ruck without tackle) is there?

[blobo18]

@warrust nope completely legal as far as im aware

[AntidoteFilmsDublin]

Killer, never seen a planned move come from 2nd Phase.
