JT i do enjoy this game however the penalties in the game should be more frequent and varied the only penalties ive seen are for offside, high tackle and I can get a penalty against me for holding on to long in the ruck and the scrums usually collapse for me but never the AI not once ive never seen a collapsed Maul ever in the game for me or the AI, what about Penalties for not staying on your feet or coming round the side of the ruck a spear or late tackle or tackled without the ball obstruction etc i know there are many penalties in Rugby Union in real life maybe im asking too much however it would be good to have this in the game

Hello guys !  
I think the ‘easiest’ to implement It at the moment would be a penalty for late support in a ruck, which would result in a penalty for not releasing the ball. This happens several times in a game at the moment. Rather than a turnover, which can sometimes be difficult to manage, a penalty would pose a real risk.  
This would create a risk for players who move away from their supports. It would also favour teams with faster or more enduring forwards.
