Very critical! Just under 45% of AP tries have started from lineouts and heres another stat,Sarries are top of the AP with the 10th best scrum!

Stats can be misleading IMO!
Do those stats tell where on the pitch and when in a match scrum penalties were conceded, for instance are they attacking the set piece in the opposition half and keeping it stable in their own half or are they just attacking everything, and is it with starters or after the bench is emptied etc?
They look very much like a side that wants to scrummage and it looks like extremely hard graft keeping them off in this area!

Nonetheless, Ourla is correct. The lineout is an error of concern.
