[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 205585"] Doesn't explain why the WRU have put up such a fuss, Wales' pack has never been dominent! The ELV's are perfect for the style we play here in Wales (even though I have my reservations), yet they have decided not to give them a go. I was just starting to look forward to seeing them implemented. Shame. Can understand why the RFU have done it though. Englands game revolves around pummelling a team up front, utilising a good kicking game with a powerfull driving maul. I don't like the way they play, but as Mite has said, that's rugby UNION. There's many different ways teams can play and be successfull. NZ proves, running rugby can and often is the best way, but England proves that grinding out a win can also pay dividends. Good on the RFU for giving the IRB the finger! One more thing, weren't everyone hailing the Wales v Fiji game in the RWC as one of the greatest specticles of all time, so running rugby is acheivable under the current laws........... [/QUOTE]
