You have listed that the scrums were won by Cronulla 6-4. They were won by Canterbury 6-4.

An hours highlights of the game is here:

at 43:30 they give the scrums & penalties at the time & Canterbury were leading 5-2, so Canterbury have already exceeded the 4 you have listed. AFLTables has it as Canterbury 6-4. as well.

It's also what is in Middo's annual.

Thanks Ted.

We sourced most of the scrum & penalty data from the AFL Tables I found sometime ago that they are mostly wrong through the late 80's & 90's for some reason so I've been changing them as I update details on games.

The exact tallies are not always accurate between sources in this game for example Big League has scrums to Canterbury 8-3 & penalties 13-11 to Cronulla but Middleton's Yearbook as you say scrums 6-4 to Canterbury & penalties 12-11 to Cronulla.

I generally put the Big League tallies in RLP.
