[QUOTE="Every Time Ref, post: 880466, member: 71826"] I’m on board with this, yes he’s the best scrummaging tighthead but it’s not like he’s Carl Hayman. Is he properly dominant to the extent that he makes up for being basically a spare wheel whenever there isn’t a scrum happening? I don’t think so. Trouble is, his understudy is an idiot who got himself banned, so there’s no other serious option available today. Yep I agree. Complacency, inexperienced players who are less comfortable with the systems, disruption from shedloads of subs ... all adds up to a comfortable win that doesn’t look as slick and dominant as we’d hoped.
