[QUOTE="QKXV, post: 179253"] Ja, specially the s'african teams struggling to come to terms with the pace, the bulls will not make the play-offs this year due to this very factor, infact I think the only south african team that might just make it could be the sharks as they are the only of the safrican franchises who's better adapted at a 'looser' game than the rest of our franchises. I have to admit the first game I watched really went against my grain, but I now have a better idea of where this is going. The kiwi's as always are so fast to adapt and play the game to the letter of the law. Exited at watchin the performances of the crusaders and the blues, these squads are like pioneers when it comes to finding how to make laws work for a team, as for killing the ball and not conceding points, well maybe not initially but being on the defence after succesive free kicks will quickly thin out the best organised defence in the world and the propability of conceding a try rather than a kick at goal will deter even the best flanker in the world from killing the ball.......too obviously anyway.
