Amazed, getting a point before scrum (9)
I believe the answer is:
awestruck
'amazed' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'a point before scrum' is the wordplay.
'point before' becomes 'west' (west is a kind of point. I am not sure about the 'before' bit.).
'scrum' becomes 'ruck' (I've seen this before).
'a'+'west'+'ruck'='AWESTRUCK'
'getting' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for awestruck that I've seen before include "Very afraid" , "open-mouthed" , "Filled with wonder" , "Filled with amazement" , "Fearful" .)
