[QUOTE="ThebigARena, post: 895403, member: 73861"] Gatland fooled the whole of Wales into believing he was a changed man, all this bravado of the new way of playing is bull. Lets assess , He came into this tourney with nothing to lose , Wales weren't expected to beat Scotland in game one, Wales had a bad autumn (again) and the whole of Wales demanded changed so with the shackles off and forced by some injuries Gats brings in the in form creative players with nothing to lose. Then after we beat Scotland Gatland starts to think well maybe this is the way and we continue against England - We lose a Close game to England at TWICKERS (by no means a disaster ) and then immediately for the IRELAND game he goes back to biggar at 10 (just back from injury) and DROPS the inform creative 10 in patchell , This just shows the mentality of the man, he Isn't 100 per cent committed to this new style its more a half arsed effort when there is no pressure on Wales to win. As soon as there is a must win game hes back to his old ways as evidenced by this starting team against France and frustratingly the inform 10 In WALES once again pays the price of being dropped! Gatland will NEVER change hes the mourinho of the rugby world , he doesn't really embrace creativity he just puts up with it, he likes a controlled game that has zero risk involved and that really is his nature. The only good thing that has come from this is a we have given international experience to young talent that may not have previously had the chance. [/QUOTE]
