Look at the different nationalities in here and amicable attitude to disagreements and tribalism. The footie threads are utter crybabies compared to in here, they ruin our forum.

For me there's a simple solution, everyone including the half backs are the size of Lomu these days, there's no space on the field so everyone resorts to playing like a battering ram which increases the chance of penalties at more breakdowns and slowing the game down, and also increases injury; take 1 forward away and 1 back away, or 1 back minimum, make it a 14 man or 13 man game.

I’m Welsh, so a bit biased maybe, but I think I’m on fairly safe ground here by saying a lot of fans of my age, be they English, Scottish or Irish, became fans of rugby watching the great Welsh sides of the 70’s. I think back to watching geniuses like Barry John ghosting through defences, well you just don’t see his like anymore. Everybody is built like a wardrobe these days, whatever position they play.

As it stands you'll never see another Shane Williams.
