[QUOTE="NZbloke, post: 1056384, member: 85358"] Good point about having better balance in the team - for example our best AB midfield combo ever would have to be Conrad Smith/Nonu, a power player & the smaller type player that was the organizer, I'd always tend to play the bigger more powerful bloke at 2nd-five, as they're closer to the rucks & mauls where most of the heavy traffic is. de Klerk may have applied a bit of spin on the ball, but that's no excuse for us dropping so much aerial ball, we were just poor in the air... also most of de Klerks up & unders went too far so there was hardly any pressure from their chasers on us.... Our lineouts were a mess, our jumpers lacked aggression, needed to get in front of their marker aggressively attacking the ball in the air... instead we allowed them to come across our lineout to constantly disrupt our ball.
