[QUOTE="lazy_chesnut, post: 42127"] That gap wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the total inability of the players to break the gain-line running stright into players. I have been playing Rugby 2005 again recently, and I noticed how I just kept running wide and passing through the hands to get to the winger to try and run around the defense. It is simply because you know that if you run right at the defense (like you might do in real rugby) there's no way you will get through the defense. Imagine if that gap wasn't there in Rugby 2005. You would never score a single try. Only very rarely do you get the defense out of position (such as having no blindside defender) so you would have to run right at the defense and inevitably get knocked back by your opposite number, who was probably offside in the first place. I really hope that hey have sorted out the CPU offsides this time. I can count on one hand the number of times I've been awarded an offside. I've had so many times where I would try and pick the ball up from the back of the ruck, only to be nailed by someone milling around the ruck about 2 yards offside. Penalties are a massive thing in rugby. In Rugby 2005, the winner of the match was the person who score the most tries generally, but that is often not the case in real life rugby - world cup 2003 final, anyone? [/QUOTE]
