Leave scrum to rugby, I like getting stuff done

The Daily Scrum is frequently misunderstood - it's actually to replan to remaining work required to achieve the sprint goal not a status update or field report.

It might well mean that you need to bring in the Product Owner to tell them the news so that together you discuss what is delivered to meet the definition of the sprint goal can be adjusted within acceptable boundaries.

If you're wondering why you should accept this definition it's because I recently attended the Scrum Patterns course run by Jim Coplien (the guy who codified the definition of the Daily Scrum and is the co-author of "A Scrum Book" with Jeff Sutherland) and heard it directly from him.

Field reports are meant to replan the remaining work. That's the whole purpose of field reports.

But I understand what you mean: too many people use it to track activity, not as input for the agile loop.
