[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 1050575, member: 73144"] Ford 2 in 77 tests. Farrell 3 in 97. St Jonny of Wilkinson 36 in 97. And it’s not like the Eng team of that era didn’t run. The game’s changed, but scoreboard pressure’s still an important thing and tight games still happen. It baffles me that for all the analysis and planning teams restrict themselves in this way…..if nothing else it gives defences something else to think about. It’s not an easy skill, but it’s not impossible either….given they’re from open play and with a lower success % than place kicks, maybe make them 4 points if outside the 22. [/QUOTE]
