Page 1
Printed under the title: A rugby team sheet with the bench on the same list, then every substitution, the cards and the score by type on page two.

Your competition sets the bench. How many replacements a squad may name, which positions need cover and how a temporary replacement for blood or a head injury is handled are your competition's rules — fill as many squad lines as your fixture allows. The reason column records what happened; the referee and your governing body decide what counts.

Questions
Why is the number of replacement lines not fixed to the laws?
Because how many replacements may be named, and which positions need cover, is set by your competition and your governing body and differs between levels and age groups. The sheet gives you lines; your fixture tells you how many to fill.
What is the front-row column for?
Some competitions ask a side to identify who can cover the front row; if yours does, tick the players concerned. If it does not, leave the column blank.
