[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 526168, member: 48703"] In my opinion it's wrong to select two wingers who combined score/create less tries than the winger on the bench. It was obvious he doesn't. The difference in pace was so large I don't think running withou the ball would have made Camacho quicker. [FONT=Verdana] [/FONT] He did create the opportunity for himself. But you can't deny that was a "gilt-edged" try scoring opportunity, there was nobody in front of him and he had a clear run to the line just didn't have the pace. McCabe had just comeback from several weeks layoff as well, so you would expect most wingers to be able to maintain a lead on a 12 who has just come back from an injury. [media=youtube]WrkAtSkvOE8[/media] 15:49 on the video This is an idea which would indeed be interesting. I wouldn't mind seeing either Agulla or Camacho tried in a game (perhaps against a lesser opponent) at 13. Unfortunately, Phelan's conservativeness and unwillingness to experiment and try new ideas meant that he (stupidly) didn't bother trialling either of them at 13 in the June internationals or the matches against Stade Français. Bosch as you say hasn't offered much. [/QUOTE]
