[QUOTE="Mr Ruggleby, post: 972055, member: 41553"] [sigh] Why always with the false hyperbole? Literally watch any highlight video and you'll see he makes breaks. He also does a far better job of offloading/making the right decision once he has broken the line. But, knowing that these subjective statements probably go against your perfect recollection of events (I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt that you watch as much of Saracens as you do of Leicester), I present to you...THE STATS: For England in 2019: [B]Ford[/B] Clean Breaks: 5 [B]Farrell[/B] Clean Breaks: 6 Now I'm sure that Ford would make more breaks in general - he is faster and takes the ball to the line more frequently, [U]BUT[/U] either you haven't watched England play this year or you need your eyes tested. Owen Farrell makes breaks.
