[QUOTE="munstermuffin, post: 570302, member: 39240"] Never said he was the cause of todays loss and he scored 5 points. And as you always say with ROG duck maybe he gets extra credit because of having an excellent pack but Brock James is not a top 10 that is needed for HEC success. Yes he gets by as he's with 1 of best squads in world club rugby but Clermont need a 10 in the world class category. The man who was best and in my opinion made James try was Rougerie. And well watching from behind the goals (not best view) I thought he was best back for Clermont considering very little rugby he's played lately. And again I wouldn't hail Wilkinson for the conversion as it was on a good side for him (albeit a great kick) but Clermont didn't have the player at 10 (Skrela or James) to be smart and play it smart. There's a big difference from not playing poorly and playing superb team rugby. If roles were reversed Wilkinson in my opinion would've played a totally different game. And while I don't rate James as highly as some I'd ask if he is the much better player then shouldn't Vern Cotter be asked some serious questions. [/QUOTE]
