I don't know what teams you play with but I find it is hard to defend if you chose a poorer team or chose poor players for a good team! For example I have just completed a six nations with a third or fourth string England side and each game was a challenge. i had players like Andy Goode and Varndell and a load of players I have never heard of!

I scraped past Wales, Ireland and Italy and got thumped by France and Scotland! The Scotland game was a real surprise - they played with amazing flair, not something I would expect from the scots (no offence!). They also played with only 13 men for the last 20 or so. The France game was close until half time then they played some amazing running rugby in the second half. went down 40-14!

Obviously if you play with a good team or have built up a great team in the world league things are going to get very easy, but try and give yourself a challenge. I am going to have to improve my England team for the world cup. Thinking about bringing Robinson back into the fold! My current team is just too damn weak!

Also only play the game once or twice a week so that stops me getting too good I guess.

I have never played the game with a top side or a strong team because I don't want to get too good at it. As a result the only thing I have won is a lions tour to South Africa. Lots of challenges ahead. Next stop world cup in South Africa!
