Speed not creativity is the key in SL.

Been saying the same for ages. Leeds and Saints are flat track bullies and dont need any clever moves to open up defences so they just dont use them.

england team to play in semi : Sun Nov 09, 2008 8:55 pm  

we have seen 3 games now what would be your team be for saturday to play the kiwis again ,i think i would go with

smith
calderwood
pryce
senior
gardner
gleeson
burrow
morley
higham
peacock
jamie jones
ellis
purdam

subs roby ,wilkin,grayham,sinfield

i would put pryce in at centre ,due to his size ,and gleeson at off half ,i thought he had a decent game ,you could change it round if not working
i think roby and wilkin come off the bench better ,both great impact players and grayham can spell our front row ,i would leave wellens out
also i think he is past it at this level ,senior is as well but theres no one else tbh, whats your thoughts

To counter your arguement slightly, Then why doesn't the other teams who play with a less go forward still struggle to produce the guile needed to unlock strong defences.
