[QUOTE="LIONSxv, post: 1038894, member: 82756"] Where have I said ignore form, form is equally as important as ability and history. I think you have either missed or misenterpreted my OP. I just don't get this Cult Wyn Jones status. Sutherland has done far more to be deserving of a starting place over a longer, sustained period. By Welsh fans own admissions their set piece and ability to gain dominance in the tight 5 has been an Achilles heal for quite a period of time. Yet I'm repeatedly seen 3 Welsh players in pundits and fans starting tight 5 makes no sense. It's the equivalent of having Young's, Ford and Farrel as you 9,10 and 12 ... You and others like have a laser focus on the last six nations, yet the fact that the Welsh played against 7 man packs for the majority of two games is seemingly not of importance [/QUOTE]
