What are the mechanics of rugby?
In the forwards of the scrum and lineouts, the simplest way to calculate the power involved will be resolving forces (found in AS Level Physics and Further Maths), in whichever direction, the force is intended to go, will be be along a 2D plane. Lineouts will be trying to achieve greatest 'Force' times with 'sin' 'angle between lifter and lifted'. Scrums are similar, but obviously also trying to save all the power against the opposition's scrum. The angles are important. I don't think you want my pedantic knowledge so alternativley, you can look at the very appropriate book called 'Physics of Rugby'
