What do you think of this, another first for Rugby, I kind of like the idea of this during the scrums and lineouts as long as it is used sparingly to enhance the game and broadcast, could work well in Football Cricket and many other sports if edited correctly.

I think that Sky trialled this in an English premiership match earlier this year. The reviews weren't too brilliant, but I didn't see it so can't comment.
If it's used selectively I can see an argument for it. Brilliant in cricket to see what the umpire sees - I'd like that. Football wouldn't adopt it, they'll roll out the argument they used for such a long time to prevent goal-line technology, that it couldn't be used by all levels of the game so it shouldn't be introduced at the top level. As an argument it is pathetic, but I digress.

Cheers,

Jon
