Meta-analysis of studies reporting absolute total scrums, rucks, and tackles per match (n) from video-based analysis in rugby union. The forest plot (mean and 95% confidence interval (CI)) presents the results of the meta-analysis of the pooled data estimates for the total a scrums, b rucks and c tackles per match. The squares and horizontal lines represent individual study mean and 95% CI and the diamond presents the pooled mean and 95% CI. The bigger the square the larger the sample size
