[QUOTE="Gay-Guy, post: 184322"] At the risk of souding racists please take into account that I am generalising :lol: European stock are [i]generally[/i] big and strong African stock are [i]generally[/i] slight and speedy Asian stock are [i]generally[/i] short and agile Pacific stock are [i]generally[/i] big, strong, agile and speedy. So currently the world sevens is being led by the best BRAIN who can harness pacific stock. The best brain is not in the Fiji, Samoa, or Tongan team. The best brain is Gorden ***chens who uses mainly pacific stock consisting of Maori, Samoan, Tonagan and Fijian players coupled with a good budget and up to date training methods and equipment. Gordon ***chens would have the same results if he had Fiji or Samoa (or even Tonga) for 10 years with a similar budget :o So how will the rest of the world dominate the sevens scene? European stock players need to be chosen on speed as they are already big and strong in their genes. African players need to be chosen on strength as they already have speed in their genes. Asian players need players as tall as Fijians as they are already agile by nature. Or they could do what they do in NZ. Cross breeding between races to create the better alround player. Cross breeding also creates the better looking player as well :P Anyway...hopefully the NZRFU keeps Gordon Ttitchens for as long as they can. We don't want another situation where they lose another Gatland overseas. Imagine how terrible it would be for the world sevens if Gordon and Eric went overseas to coach Fiji! :o [/QUOTE]
