[QUOTE="polonius, post: 155793"] 2 tries per game from a poor side that is accused of never even trying to score them isn't such a bad return. But my point is England don't score many tries because the opposition give away penalties in order to stop the quick ball which would lead to a try-scoring opportunity. See England's third penalty against Australia as an example of what I mean. And another thing ... the ESPN channel showed the 1995 RWC Final the other day - played between 2 SH sides. No tries only penalties and drop-goals - and plenty of drop-goal attempts which failed. Does this remind you of something? [/QUOTE]
