[QUOTE="BPM, post: 1052307, member: 59968"] I’m not sure I agree. There’s conservative and then there’s outright negative … My frustration (and I’m sure it’s similar for others) is thr complete lack of ambition. Neither team is even really trying to play. I feel like the coaches are going in to the game telling their players ‘you won’t break down the opposition’s defence, so you’re better off taking your chances by kicking’. I’m not expecting Barbarians rugby by any stretch of the imagination but resorting to kicking if you’re unable to beat a blitz defence is a very different scenario to automatically kicking on the assumption that it’s your only chance of success.
