[QUOTE="Rich Taff, post: 962770, member: 68394"] Always tend to get players like that. Especially the more 'creative' ones. They take longer to read a game, but can exploit situations better when they have. They are especially effective vs tiring teams, with the ability to spot where the gaps are from the touchline, rather than on the pitch with tacklers in their face. Normally Wales seem to have the opposite with Anscombe and Biggar. Anscombe seems very good at exploiting space initially, and Biggar can see what needs to be done, and tidy's up afterwards. However, it worked the other way today with the more expansive Patchell being able to read the game first before coming on (although he can be excused a bit for not expecting the onslaught in the second half, and looking a bit bambi in headlights at times). I get the feeling that if Biggar had stayed on, then Australia wouldn't have had as much success in the second half. [/QUOTE]
