[QUOTE="Los Lover, post: 12666"] Haha!! Hypnotised.....this is true (my SH biased in terms of pace).. But I believe it to be factual... Islanders have better twitch fibres and therefore run quicker - in fact black people in general do (hence my mention of Chavange etc.....) Northern Hemisphere teams don't have a lot of them and therefore don't have a lot of pace. I don't believe Robinson is in the speedsters league at all....like I said earlier, Cohen a couple of years back was heaps quicker...Robinson's height plays a part in his (lack of) pace. Sure he looks quick - but is he? Not really. Also on an insulting to NH level, I don't see enough running rugby from them to make choices as easily as I do from the more attacking and in-the-spirit-of-the-game SH style rugby. It's not that the defence is suspect or anything, but the attack is just too good to stop.... England found that out last year and the Lions will find it out soon. At least NZ will help the Lions and subsequent sides tone down on their ridiculous size!!.... 1000 assistants anyone? what a joke..lol! [/QUOTE]
