[QUOTE="ranger, post: 398060, member: 40555"] I dont think its that simple. What do you mean "will be used to them"? how does that stop them from having an effect? I can sort of see what you mean in that the element of suprise might be lost, but he has shown with his performances that that doesn't really matter. Every defense [I]knows[/I] he will offload, but no one can do anything about it. Maybe one day teams will figure out how to counter it, but i can't see a viable solution myself. Eventually once a team manages to shut him down, just like Lomu it will undoubtably lead to gaps in the defense elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
