[QUOTE="edinburgh_gunner, post: 108319"] With only 2 15 a side games left for me this year, attention has turned to playing 7s for some tournaments comming up. So every training session has now turned into several games of 7s and I'm really not liking 7s (or 10s when we play that either). The reason? I'm a hooker with not much pace, but plenty bosh and a desire to do the hard donkey work in 15s. Is there any of that in 7s? Naw, and that sucks. Last night at training, I was doing pick and goes, boshing folk and doing big powerful runs (but then getting turned over cause in 7s no one is there to wipe out straight away if you make a break) and as I've got no real pace I really didn't enjoy and consequently I'm being sent to the shitty of the two 7s tournamnets we're in this weekend. Perhaps it's just me thinking this cause I'm a front row that would rather work hard for 80 mins, but 7s is rubish. If you're not fast, your useless in this game. It basically means that my season ends in March, and most of the training sessions are completley pointless for me. So, where do my fellow front rowers stand on this? [/QUOTE]
