[QUOTE="TRF_Olyy, post: 605276, member: 34990"] I, unfortunately, agree with this. If we put out the same 23, then the talent in our backs isn't enough to break the ABs defence. We'll play a slow and steady type of game, running through the motions, but our set pieces etc. will just be shut down by the ABs. It'd take some individual brilliance (i.e. Tuilagi last time round, or the type of spark Wade provides) to break through. Our best bet would be to keep it tight, have Farrell kick his goals, and maybe get a forwards try if we're in the right position. I'd like to think our defence is enough to keep it reasonable, but who knows - this is an insanely talented ABs side, end-of-season-fatigue or not. [/QUOTE]
