[QUOTE="best_fullback, post: 386539, member: 15318"] Sorry but IMO I thought it was pretty boring. I think that a game that doesn't involve a single try (especially in a varsity game) is highly boring considering there were 6 tries this year and 3 or 4 in 2009. I 100% appreciate that it isn't always the critical element for a good game, but because it is your university in general you are supporting more than the actual 'team' playing (because nobody knows all of them) I personally think it is better to see a spectacle rather than say a good defensive or kicking performance. As for the academy boys that is a massive problem with this fixture. Many players do get left out for academy boys when on merit they should probably be playing. My friend knew a lock who was meant to be starting for Cardiff but was dropped the week before for a Scarlets academy player. [/QUOTE]
