[QUOTE="Dragon Fanatic, post: 1871"] Who ever said Union has better defence why did on my Rugby Union trip to the AIS we went to the Canberra Raiders training and they did defensive drills with us because of our ex-Wallaby and ex-Waratah coach beleives that League has the becnhmark for defence. Check Mate. And League back have different skills to Rugby backs as do Fowards. A Union prop would not be as fit as a League prop yet a league prop wouldn't be as good in the art of scrummaging but then Union props wouldnt be good at running the ball up and getting a go foward and wouldnt have the same ball skills. Across the park taking out set pieces including the play-the ball and rucks and mauls a League team would have better general skills than a Union side. And a League back has to focus on beating one or two defenders with their footwork and speed to get out of trouble whereas Union backs continually kick the ball out which stops play and makes the whole game a kick-athon bore-athon.
