Quote: Mr. Zucchini Head "Probably not, but only because New Zealand's backs aren't as good as the Aussies. Had Bridge and Fox been the partnership last week the score would have been no different.
At the end of the day, we can blame McGuire, Smith and Briscoe for their positional play, but when there is that much room to run at the only ones to blame are the forwards. They were getting dominated and getting pulled into the middle which leaves massive spaces. If the Kiwi's v Aussies game was anything to go by it will be the same all over again on Saturday.'"
The problem as far as i see it is peacock in the 2nd row leaves the winger, centre and half back exposed as he can't slide as quick as a 2nd row needs to meaning that the gap is created by enforced poor decision making. This was proven when westwood came on and the right hand side tightend up.
