But I can't see the personnel currently available to play a different game.
I hardly need mention the mess if we repeat those stats of turnovers, possession and territory against the ABs - who are a better side anyway and so presumably would have even better stats.
Higginbotham is a luxury we can't afford - but I see him featuring in MOTM discussion.
I guess Hooper cab play on the ball instead of as a 12 but he hasn't done it for a while.
Look at his turnover count for 2017 in Super Rugby. I think he plays as he is asked to play, not on some sort of sanctioned whim.
