[QUOTE="austingtir, post: 803127, member: 54150"] Thats rubbish because if you use the tactics the AB's have used to Nullify Pocock it works. Pocock cant do a damn thing about it, its written all over his face every time he was beaten in both WC finals... How can he have no answer to the same loosies we played against him 4 years later? He's had 4 years to stew on 2011 and still got totally owned. Then you play him at 8 when he does not give you a credible line out option or the genuine height and bulk to come off the back of the scrum and make the advantage line every time. This tactic of playing him at 8 will only work if they have Wayne Barnes as reff (who tends to allow a free for all at ruck time for teams with genuine pilferers) or some team who have never seen how the AB's have dealt to this guy in consecutive WCUPS. He's a good 7 but he's no top int level number 8. [/QUOTE]
