[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 1075648, member: 45598"] Fairish. But away from home with such tight margins I think our chance of winning goes up with the lineout rather than the pen. I think Carbery was helped a lot once Henshaw came on, I reckon he talks more than Aki and his better hands afford both a bit more time, we really looked like we had a good flow going through phases in that 60-70 minute mark. I think that 23 could reach the outstanding levels of rugby we haven't otherwise seen without Johnny at 10, and I can say for sure I didn't think this was possible a year ago. I think we should have had Coombes on the bench for that game, we knew it'd be massively physical, and in hindsight Lowry should have been ahead of Carty, would have been nice to take Keenan off and Carty isn't an international player. Balacoune needs to be our 14 before long, Conway has never looked comfortable during the very very tough games we play. France were also excellent. I think they rely on destroying teams in the first 40, and they can really do it to anyone. 40-60 they fall off and then the bench brings them home. Not many sides will be capable of beating them next year, clinical rugby, you know exactly what's going to come and you probably won't stop it. [/QUOTE]
