Support This picture was taken during the match opposing the USO to the Sale Sharks, competing in the European Challenge Cup, which was attended by two accredited photographers, thanks to Wikimedia CH. The USO player (in beige with the hlemet) has just got the ball on his hands and is starting his run. The Sharks player on the left is advancing to try to tackle him. Behind him is the ruck from which the ball was extracted. -- Pleclown (talk) 09:58, 27 April 2014 (UTC)
Oppose I think having the scrum cut in half is a major disappointment for this image. Everything else seems fine. Saffron Blaze (talk) 20:01, 27 April 2014 (UTC)
- I understand what you say. But I'd like to point that this is not a scrum, but a ruck, and that the blue players on the right are the defensive line of the Sales Sharks, not the forward lines. This is the result of this tackle (tackle, ruck, ball coming out to the offensive player on the left of the picture). Pleclown (talk) 11:11, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
Neutral I agree with Saffron, I like and know rugdy and I understand that the image is centered on the action, it's a good centring for a tv camera but for this photo I want to see a bit more at right, the cut mens on the right are, like it or not, a part of the composition and they are cut. However it's a good and nice image. Christian Ferrer (talk) 17:43, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
