| New bumps rules | |
The CUCBC captains have agreed to change the rules for bumps so that a bump will be awarded before Grassy if the bow ball passes the cox. Which of these is nearest to your view? | It's the right solution to carnage in the gut | | 24% | | | There is a problem but this isn't the solution: bigger fines for late acknowledgement would be better | | 3% | | | There is a problem but this isn't the solution: banning coxes or somehow penalising offending crews would be better | | 52% | | | There is a problem but my solution below would be better | | 3% | | | There is not a problem, this is a change which panders to the 'Safety is the 1st Priority' brigade | | 7% | | | Bow balls are for wimps. | | 10% |
