[QUOTE="jaunard06, post: 539686, member: 56207"] They are not a strong side up front, even though they recently improved. But this is not really an issue for them at least against NH nations, when they routed us a few years ago at Stade de France our scrum was already better. The "no scrum, no win" proverb is not more really true and Australia always found the way to deal with that relative weakness. You can consider Argentina and SA as being scrummaging references and still as you said they lost against them. Still Samoa went behind our line twice when Australia rarely threatened us. When you look at the first try especially this is not only brute force but talent also. [/QUOTE]
