[QUOTE="An Tarbh, post: 178403"] because playing a test match takes the same physical toll on the players as a heavyweight boxing match. For the Six Nations that's 5 test matches in 7 weeks, it would be insane to ask them to add to that. You'd swear that there's a deliberate attempt by teams not to entertain and score tries by the tone of some of your comments, which I find baffling to say the least. We had 3 quality games this weekend outside of the bonus points system, I wasn't bored and certainly would have had a problem paying €75 for a ticket. What is this obsession with entertainment, it's sport, it's about winning not entertaining. [/QUOTE]
