@Oom_Rugby I don’t think he’s the best passing 9, (Aaron smith crispness) but he’s always on the move and threatening ruck defenders so they can’t switch off or he’ll exploit them. His identification of space is amazing and has the ability to pick players out with both footed kicks.
@monners1969 I Know where you’re coming from mate - was there last season. It is tough but also need to look at positives. 2 teams out most weekends, and as long as the boys have enjoyed is the main thing. Can be a lonely place coaching at times but you’re good at what you do so stick with it
@thedeadballarea So I think players could play for longer if they look after themselves, even though rugby is more physical than ever.
If they want to continue playing is another thing.
@thedeadballarea Looks after himself well - recovery and training in the week- if he’s enjoying and is still adding value to the team I don’t think age matters.
Recovery methods are the best they’ve ever been and players are looked after pretty well these days…..
@SamLStandsUp England would take the win.
The attacking quality they have you would think they would back themselves a bit more. Some of their kicks tonight were aimless and seemed panicked. They’ve been together for a good 10-12 weeks and that’s the attack they are producing.
@offfieldrugby I do agree with you - The only thing I would say - the best team in the world right now are probably the most structured? They deffo were under Joe Schmidt. Also, Leinster also top 3/4 teams in the world.
I could be V wrong here and call me out if you disagree.
@Gav_S_Harper Give it then and allow LRZ a 1-1 or let LRZ identify the space in behind and put a kick in. Full back is committed and not going to turn and catch him. Harris did too much I think. Yes Zammit should have caught the offload but was too close to the defender to be a threat.
