[QUOTE="KZNSharksFan, post: 163376"] I used England as an example as they have been the most prominent this year in using only forwards and the boot of Johnny. Dont get me wrong, i love to see 8 forwards all above 100 kg smashing into each other in the mauls and rucks (i am from SA you know). I was merely trying get peoples views on the matter. Personally, I think that the variety of ways in which teams are able to win games: from forward dominated play by England, all out attacking rugby by NZ and a mixture of the two by South Africa, is one of the things that make rugby such an excellent game to play and watch. To take that away would rip 100+ years of tradition from the game. And Teh Mite, to say that the SA backs were not totally incompetent is a wretchedly unfair understatement. Surely you witnessed the way they were able to carve through opposition backlines of every team they played, including Wales recently. [/QUOTE]
