So if the ball was to be thrown to the middle the call would be something like "AEZ" or "WUK" would be to the back of the line out.
Our lineout calls were similar. We used to use the letters from AND and make a word from the letter we used. A-Front, N-middle and D-back. We then said either green - tap down to scrum half or red - maul, after it. So it would be something like Niargra Green. It was very simple but effective.


I just dont see how they cannot do it properly? It mite be that they are using too many calls which can be confusing (as we found out) or something, but they need to sort it out before the next match otherwise the series maybe over too soon.
