[QUOTE="Geordie, post: 696765, member: 71380"] I guess it is also what you want from your scrum. I have a suspicion that Lancaster isn't concerned about having a destructive scrum (im sure in an ideal world he would) and is more concerned with the workate everywhere else of his pack. He wants his locks like Lawes making crazy tackles out wide against Australia this Ai, and being all over the place. As long as they win the ball on our own put in he's not concerned. I do think having Attwood in there showed what a real powerhouse of a Lock can offer though. I also think Ed Slater offers the same but possibly a better carrying game as well. Shame he got injured as he could well have made a lock spot his own. And he would be another leader out there on the pitch. [/QUOTE]
