[QUOTE="ruggabee, post: 635173, member: 70704"] Damn, for some reason I thought he'd lost his blistering pace but that video says otherwise. He showed North a clean pair of heels twice. Also in that still before you click play it looks like he's having a mind blowing epiphany :D Regarding size and wingers in the game, I don't think it necessarily means that smaller players are losing their place, it's just what coaches like at the moment. Guys like Aplon show that being technically sound defensively and tactically while having blistering pace is still the core make up of a successful outside back. Size is a bonus. Give me a winger with a mean step, out and out pace and a sound all round ability over someone big like North, unless we're talking about Savea, then take Savea. [/QUOTE]
