[QUOTE="ratsapprentice, post: 593570, member: 67273"] The pack is very mobile and great at playing with tempo, but it doesn't have the sort of physicality that will allow them to gain traction in a game against a really physical team like SA or the Wales team that turned up in Cardiff. We need to find players that can do that (or can cope with it being done to them) so that we can go into games knowing we have the correct tools to deal with that sort of team when we come up against them. We don't need two separate packs to choose from, just one or two players who will allow us to adjust the balance of our pack when it's needed. Getting Attwood and Billy Vainipolo (as the commentators insist on calling him :mad:) involved will go a long to achieving that IMO. [/QUOTE]
