quite shocking really

fucken hillarious ... why not just fake a simple injury? You are allowed to bring a player back on in case of an injury!

Dont think that accurate RA...blood bin rule or summit

Very accurate.

John Smith got subbed in the 2nd half of the 1st test against the Lions and came back in as a substitute after the replacement prop got injured.

i dunno...Heineken Cup rules are different to internationals? I think

Not really sure, just going by the logic of your 1st post ..if its not necassary why do it. There must be a reason

Only works with props though eh? A safety thing?

Different rules for props. I think you are allowed to sub a prop back on because of the nature of the position. Probably something to do with safety with the scrums.

...just another reason why rugby is stupid really.

Yep definitely only front rowers allowed to sub back on.

So if you dont have any subs left on the bench a backline dude gets injured you play with 14 guys for the remainder of the game?

Heh didn't know it was only front rowers.

Yep, or the injured guy plays. If there are no specialist front rowers left due to injury, they play golden oldies scrums.
