Their wingers shit all over ours
And that’s one of the main differences. Their players suit the modern rules perfectly. Go forward from the wingers and fast, hard-working defence from the middles. Defensively their middle forwards shit all over ours as well. They might not offer as much in attack but it doesn’t matter because they get 400+ metres from Edwards and To’o every week. It’s not like our wingers can help Paulo and Mahoney in defence. They’re out on the wing having a rest from their ten carries.
