[QUOTE="ABs2011, post: 591654, member: 57663"] Right, I see what you are saying. To you oriniginal quation, my answer is still yes. I think they can grind out a win in that way, I just think at Eden Park they will lose maybe 8 times out of 10 if that's their approach and there could be better options in terms of tactics for the SAs. I'd like to hear our SA experts opinions on this, but with the dominance SA has up front their backs should be having a field day. Stand with a bit more depth, have runners at various angles (decoy or not), bring Kirchner and/or the blindside winger into the line more, and direct Steyn to pass and run more frequently. I would have thought SA would have a lot of success, but clearly they feel they are better off employing alternative tactics. I would love to see them take a bit more risk against NZ and see how they go though - nothing to lose playing NZ at Eden Park I think. [/QUOTE]
