[QUOTE="ABs2011, post: 590333, member: 57663"] Disagree with that one. What stats or whatever are you basing the comment on? I agree Hooper was the single best player at the breakdown (that' is not taking into consideration all the penalties he conceded though) but OZ overall? The stats I have, see NZ edging the Wallabies by 1 TO at the ruck and mall, but what is quite damming of the OZ breakdown play was a penalty count which stacked up way in NZs favour. OZ infringed 8 times at the ruck NZ only 4. Aside from stats my interpretation of the game was, in general, NZ outplayed the Ozzies in that facet of the game. Certainly agree with that, hence why I think OZ need to change their tactics a bit. Moggs kicking game was been poor to say the least agains the ABs. They kicked way too much from the back and wasted a lot of chances to put the ABs under pressure. Be sure Steyn will kick a lot of ball to the OZ back three so surely they will devise a plan to sue that ball... If not SA by 10points I would agree with too!! [/QUOTE]
