[QUOTE="ozzy, post: 200164"] All of the attributes that Hamilton posesses can be trained, the simple fact of the matter is that you can't train natural talent and Hamilton is a long way behind Tuitavake and Sivi in that department. If Tui, Sivi and Hamilton all had the same training from the same top coach, the difference between them would come down to their underlying natural talents. As for Deans being some master coach, I think we should hold off on singing his praises until he has done something to prove himself in the test arena. Henry has achieved great things with the ABs if people could look past a single loss, he has one of the best winning records of any coach. The simple fact of the matter is that world cups are not a measure of which team or coach is the best, it's all about who can win the one offs and I still firmly believe that referees CAN decide the outcome of a game and the only person who should be blamed for NZ's early exit is Barnes. But kiwis seem to think their side should win no matter what, that's unrealistic, I say blame the ref and support your coach. [/QUOTE]
