[QUOTE="TRF_Olyy, post: 898561, member: 34990"] I think we've moved too far away from specialists - at the international level at least, which then trickles down as players modify their game to try and fit into the England set up. Sarries battered at the scrum and maul yesterday - how often did that used to happen? Teams want their packs to be 8 flankers, they don't want tight forwards who do the unseen dirty work. Commentary wax lyrical about the passing game of front rowers but then ignore that they're getting shoved back at scrum time. [/QUOTE]
