    "Mauling" Matt Ryan
    "The ideal body position for scrummaging is also the ideal body position for mauling."

    "Rotation in the cleanout" Doug McClymont
    "A retriever balanced on his arms/hands will more easily fall forward than be pushed backwards. In this situation the cleaner may achieve a better result by using the forward balance and pulling the retriever forward."

    "Why do rugby players scrum and maul at such different body heights?" Bruce Ross
    "The body height of rugby players in mauls tends to be very much higher than in scrums. High body positions are inefficient for generating forward momentum. There would be advantages in training players to pack at thigh height rather than waist height. Not only are they likely to gain dominance in the maul, but the practice of adopting biomechanically superior body positions is energy-conserving over the course of a game."
