Rule Changes

To reduce covid infection risk and close contact, several laws were introduced to reduce the number of scrums. These variations were reviewed after nine rounds and subsequently remained in place until the end of the season.^[8] These were:

Free kicks are awarded in place of a scrum for a knock-on or forward pass
Removal of the option for a scrum at a free kick or penalty
Scrums advantages were shortened
In a maul, the ball must be played at the first time of asking if the maul halts
A maul can only be formed from a lineout if it takes place within the 22 metre areas
No players who were not in the lineout may join the maul
Game time is reduced to 35 minutes per half
Water breaks at the mid points of each half (players had to remain distanced)
