[QUOTE="Everyday EggChaser, post: 1164968, member: 86211"] I did as part of my university degree and the all blacks would do successive box kicks down the touchline to keep the defence turning and facing the wrong way and the resulting clearance kick from the oppo team would result in what we call a net gain in the pro circles. The all blacks would box kick turnovers then regather and box kick again, They had an amazing kick chasing game and its been proven multiple times they kicked the ball more than most teams. They just had the ability and smarts to make it work for them. I have literally seen the data with my own eyes as our course lead was the head of analysis for Namibia during the 2015 world cup. You are right. You need the ball, but I am also right as you need the territory and with defences so good now a tactical attacking kicking game is absolutely necessary ie kicks with the intent to compete and put the catcher under pressure forcing mistakes. Its a percentage game in the modern time and anyway you can exert that you need to as the mistakes that come with pressure cause the opportunities to make plays to score. This is so much fun, you make me miss my uni days [/QUOTE]
