Message: [QUOTE="Thelmus, post: 3104567, member: 8988"] I would tell them to keep playing as they are. They are our two most consistent players and we've rarely had a problem in the front row since they started. Our problems have been in 2nd row, centre and wing in defence, and the spine in attack. The only time our forwards have been dominated has been when the squad was completely flogged, again from weak defence out wide. If we want someone to hit hard to inspire the team, it would best to let them develop it when the team has an otherwise solid line. Otherwise we'll have a TPJ like situation where we get big hits, missed tackles and the occasional grasping at nothing. Gillet used to hit hard, as did Teo because they were supremely confident in their application of it and had developed their technique around reliable inside and outside partners. It meant even when they had poor assistance around them, they knew how to time them. Do we really want our two most important forwards learning that and getting split up the middle or suspended?
