[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 988437, member: 40658"] From my point of view, it seems like the Blues are a bit in denial in regard to identity. They keep on talking about the past when they were the fronttunning NZ team, which was such a long time ago, but they don't seem to adapt to play style. They've always had below par front rowers, with the exception of Mealamu and Woodcock. And the areas such as lock, flanker and scrumhalf there appears to be a one-dimensionality as to the type of players they put in certain positions. Like they always have a lock that is better with running with ball in hand, than at lineouts, or a flanker that is good at the rucks, but nowhere else. The personnel might change, but the style seems to stay the same. If that makes sense? [/QUOTE]
