Smile Bird's nest

Yes this is perplexing situation. As you have likened this activity to a rugby scrum, I have made analogies to a bird's nest of baby birds crying to their mother for the worm with which she has just arrived. All the little birdies are completly oblivious to anything but the worm. What a mess!

Most girls do not understand how to establish their position or block out the other team.

For you.... See a foul and call it.... all action stops. Repeat as necessary. It is usually easy to find someone on the outside edge of the scrum/nest that is climbing up someone's back to get to the ball/worm. Call a push and administer - pay attention to WHO THE SHOOTER WILL BE if you are in the bonus, The girls will surely not have a clue.

If you miss this last point the egg will be on your face when you get ready to shoot free-throws.
