[QUOTE="leicester, post: 7306"] Provided that the girls in the backs are swift enough to make some good runs (and one or two tough enough to burst a few midfield tackles), adding in forward play is probably the one thing that would make most difference to the tactics of the game and would really allow you to adopt very different playing styles (and allow computer controlled teams to behave differently - like R2004 pretended they could). A kicking game without forwards is pointless. A running game on its own becomes candyfloss. You need both elements in a game to maintain interest and playability. I dream of a rugby game where the forwards are formidable. Those who like playing with the backs would also get more out of running rings round the admittedly usually slower forwards if they knew there was a real chance that their prized star winger might get mashed and be stretched off if he misjudges his fancy footwork. It all adds to the challenge. My one favourite moment from 2004 VI Nations was Danny Grewcock crossing the line with the Scots lock dragging behind him like a ragdoll. I want to have moments like [b][i]that[/i][/b] in PS2 rugby gaming! [/QUOTE]
